(Sorry, I'm coming to this incredibly late) This patch is pretty neat and I wish something like this had existed when I originally wrote the EFI capsule patches. James, do you have any plans to resubmit this as a non-RFC? If not, do you mind if I pick this up and rebase my capsule patches ontop of it? -- Matt Fleming, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- 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/
