I asked for it to go to stable because it is a pre-requisite for the following patch, http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=5189c2a7c7769ee9d037d76c1a7b8550ccf3481c which fixes a crash when running a mixed 32/64-bit EFI firmware/kernel. -- Matt Fleming, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
