Fwd: Re: [PATCH] NFS: Fix Oopses in nfs_lookup_revalidate and nfs4_lookup_revalidate

[Richard Ems]

Hi all,

I still don't see this patch in the 3.5.x series.
Will it make it into 3.5.5?

Thanks,
Richard

Hi Trond,

I don't see this patch going into 3.5.3 at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/stable-review/patch-3.5.3-rc1.gz
.
Shouldn't it be included in 3.5.3 ?

Thanks,
Richard

I can not guarantee any release number, but it will show up eventually,
don't worry.

Hi Greg,

I believe you said that you would take this patch. Do you want me to resend?

Cheers,
