Sorry, as I said above, my main focus was get the user ABI sorted out as a code is public and there are people that started using it. There are still a few emails marked as "unread" in my inbox that need to be addressed but I did not consider them critical for version 3 of the series. They are not forgotten, however, I'm working back through those emails and either reply or implement the suggestions. > Acked-by: Olof Johansson <o...@lixom.net> Thanks. -- Catalin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
