Again, please give me a warm and fuzzy feeling that this is really
Avi, and the right thing to do, rather than just a "please pull from
this random tree".

Yup, it's the genuine thing here, and the s/mul/mulq/ is not an incredibly clever backdoor.

It's not that I don't think you are you, but I want people to actually
*think* about what they are doing and sending me. When you give me a
kernel.org address, I know you have access to kernel.org, and that
makes me believe you are you. When you give me a github address, that
doesn't really mean anything.



Well, these days access to kernel.org proves a lot less than it used to, unfortunately.
