Yep, I understand what you mean. I can't find the discussion from several years ago, but developers asked to be able to work with more current kernels, and I recall you saying that if you want to do this, merge to a specific -rc tag at least. I'm not personally fussed either way, and if anyone cc'd has an opinion, please comment. Otherwise, I'll go back to merging to Linus only as necessary. -- James Morris <jmor...@namei.org>
