Still not a good reason to sneak it back it now, after I got it taken
out. There was a reason it was removed, prior acks (esp. 2 year old
ones) do not count one whit _NOW_.

Also, Ingo later agreed that is was a mistake,

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=137346715521978&w=2

which is an effective retract of whatever ACK that was.

It was crap code then and its crap code now.

the cost by those who need it.

Please take it out, ASAP.
