Re: 2.6.6-rc3-mm2 [delete-posix-...-unifix-message]

[Paul Jackson]

The broken out patch:

  delete-posix-conformance-testing-by-unifix-message.patch

is empty, except for the comment.

The actual change is missing in:

 1) the ftp directory 2.6.6-rc3-mm2/broken-out
 2) the broken-out tarball 2.6.6-rc3-mm2-broken-out.tar.bz2
 3) the monolithich patch 2.6.6-rc3-mm2.bz2

Presumably something like the following patch is intended:

========================== begin snip ==========================
From: "Randy.Dunlap" <rddunlap@xxxxxxxx>

There is a general desire to reduce the quantity of noisy and/or
outdated kernel boot-time messages...

Suggested by Andi Kleen.
