The examples you showed weren't quite modulo 28, more like "if (x >= 28) x -= 4". I'll fix up the changelog on applying, to read something like "As the index is decremented to a value within the first 28 entries (MD_RSV4D is set)...". -Scott -- 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/
