Hi guys,
Just a heads up that I've put Kent's standalone percpu-ida patch (with
Christoph's recommend changes) into target-pending/for-next here:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=47bd524a5b3eb6429b058b8b562b45329ab2c9e7
I've got a number of target patches that depend on this code for v3.12,
and a delay on this particular piece would be painful to endure..
Sooo, please yell loudly if there is an objection to percpu-ida merge as
a completely standalone item, that does not effect any existing ida
code.
