Re: [PATCH 1/16][BUG] Export kobject_rename for pci_hotplug_core(Not for mainline!)

Hi Greg,

This patch looks like a candidate for the current 2.6.25 cycle.
Any chance of getting it in there?

If not, maybe you can push it into linux-next without waiting for
the rest of my pci_slot changes, since this is a fix for the
kobject core, and not necessarily what I'm working on.

Thanks.
