I would like to merge the three we have (one still has to be put in for-next - the one from Jeff) for for-next in the next three or fouir days - but I can create another temporary branch for the ones for 3.10 - but ... I would like to simplify things by merging the other cleanup patches we already have first. I agree that we are going to have to let people know to rebase everything for cifs for 3.10 on this big cleanup patch. -- Thanks, Steve -- Thanks, Steve -- 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/
