No. Both will hit 2.6.36. It's way too late to queue up such changes for the 2.6.35 merge window which has already opened. Why would it be "too long" ? I keep asking what the heck is going on with having a time bomb on those patches and yet have to get a satisfactory answer.

I even provide the option to use x86 own low to high allocation. really don't know where is the time bomb. my -v14 patches only touch several lines your core lmb code, and have near 0 affect to original lmb users.

You're the one that keeps saying "that is too long", but without motivating the hurry. -hpa -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
