I think those will be fine except the two of them should have different subjects. DaveM will tell you what if anything he wants you to change.

Ben, submitted to both mentioned mailing lists, it got to DaveM processing queue, see http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/sparclinux/list/?submitter=68078 As I told earlier, I'm not a kernel developer in any form, not even C/C++ programmer. I'm not sure I would be able to answer to any objections on this patch. But thanks anyway, probably someone else (oracle guys, with their linux for sparc [L4S] project) would be able to make this patch to kernel.

I actually helped Rod to reinstall raverin (one of the buildds) with unstable/sparc64 and we verified that the kernel was installed by base-installer without any manual intervention. I will work on fixing the other two issues the following days, I am just too busy with many other things at the same time ... Adrian -- .''`.

Re: Bug#790560: udev fails to start on sparc boot, breaking boot
This has been fixed upstream for a while now, thus closing. However, please note that ld.gold has still issues on sparc/sparc64 [1] which is why I have asked the binutils maintainer to disable it on sparc/sparc64 for the time being [2].
