There's been no changes since the last time around other than the addition of a couple of tags. Patches follow, or they can be pulled from: git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6.git bkl-removal Ingo, you didn't say whether these could find a home in your violent-death-to-the-bkl tree until the merge window opens. So they're still looking for a place to rest; I guess I could ask Stephen to take the bkl-removal tree back into linux-next, but that seems like overkill. Thanks, jon
