There are often results of mismerges or other assorted screw ups, often done by the maintainer itself (e.g. me in thinkpad-acpi's case) during development. The patch is correct, and I thank you for the head's up. But let me track down what caused it first, hmm? I also highly recommend that this should be done in all cases you find, instead of just blindly fixing the assignment. I suggest using git --blame to track down what added the duplicated assignments, and check if it looks sane... It is often a VERY BAD IDEA to remove such markers of potential brokennes without checking out if they're actually helpfully trying to warn you of worse badness :p But hey, maybe you've already done that. If you did, I apologise for preaching to the choir. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
