Len, i'd *really* prefer it if patches changing arch/x86/ had a 
longer test time in linux-next than what you are gave it here.

This kind of 'send them to lkml and merge them into your linux-next 
branch and send it to Linus on the same day' kind of ambush you have 
done with the 'x86 idle' patches might be convenient to you, but it 
is inconvenient to pretty much anyone else - and it is absolutely 
unacceptable to us x86 maintainers ...

*Especially* as these patches were contentious when you last posted 
them as an RFC to lkml ...

So please watch out for this in the future, ok?

Thanks,

	Ingo
