Um no, I will not apply this.  This is new work that doesn't look like
it fixes any bug, and has not appeared in the 2.5 tree yet for testing.

Sorry if this is a shock to some people, but new work needs to be done
in the 2.5 tree, and then it can be backported to 2.4.  I know I haven't
done a great job in following this rule, but I'm going to try to be
better at it in the future.

Is there any reason this patch can't be applied to 2.5 instead, and then
to 2.4 after it's proven itself?

thanks,

greg k-h
