Well, the reason is simply that I haven't shipped it to Linus
yet ;-) It's still out for testing by you people, but I will
ship it as soon as I have a good feeling it wont break anything.

If you read my mail when I released this patch, I explicitly
wrote that I _do_ have the original patches which make up this
one. It's just easier for Linux-IrDA people to test this one
big patch instead of 10 smaller.

I got feedback on this one already, so it's been fixed.

No, read above...
I have a meeting with the local SMP expert tonight, which will
go through Jean's SMP modifications to check that everything
is sane. We will also try to fix the obvious "bugs" related
to the use of hashbins in irlmp_event.c et.al. which was
discovered by Jean. I hope I can ship the patches to Linus
within a week or so.
