no, I verify that my patches don't break Linus' tree and often also peek
at -mm, but not at external modules.
And I'm a proponent of "no stable kernel API, but as many external
modules as reasonably possible should be part of the kernel", so emails
like yours are always a good point to start asking why the code isn't in
Linus' tree.
What happened to DRBD?
It didn't seem that far from getting merged half a year ago.
