http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1310.3/01055.html That is : [PATCH V2] printk: pr_debug_ratelimited: check state first toreduce "callbacks suppressed" messages. And http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1310.3/01056.html That is : [PATCH V2] usbatm: Fix dynamic_debug / ratelimited atm_dbg andatm_rldbg macros > > - If not, as I understand 3.12 is longterm and maintained by Jiri Slaby, > > could someone forward him a request to commit Joe Perches' work ? > > Why can't you? Heu... I am nothing but an humble end-user you know. When, in some thread I read Greg K-H writing that he will commit the patch and AFAIK does not, then I presume there is something wrong in my own understanding. If, in addition to this, neither the reporter of the bug nor the author of the patch push for committing then, at the very least, I do not feel personally entitled to bother the longterm maintainer with this.
