I.e. fully sharing will put a new burden for kernel developers working on the to-be-shared code, which is something that is not desired. I was ok with, hey, tools/ broke because you're sharing code with the kernel, as probably a tools/ developer would notice that and fix things, but Linus advised against that. - Arnaldo -- 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/
