Hmm as far as I can see, there's no build issue. My patch is required before Marcel's one. Then there's another one by me to address the comments you had. I could squash them all but this just messes up attribution, bisect build is fine, and I verified that. > In particular if you applied the patch just yesterday when > we complained.

I was merely saying, it's been on review for a while, got ack and not objections, so let's apply it unless someone sees significant issues, I don't want to hold it up until all questions are answered. > > > > Don't take my word for it, you can check out my tree and verify, > > that would be very wellcome. > > > >> -- > >> SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany > >> GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Jennifer Guild, Dilip Upmanyu, > >> Graham Norton; HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) > > > -- > SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany > GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Jennifer Guild, Dilip Upmanyu, > Graham Norton; HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg)
