This leaks hp, right?

BTW your 2 patches are still not threaded, that is hard to follow.
yes, thanks, I found the bug, I am preparing to do this in v4.

It is the first time I send series patches(number >1), I checked the method
for sending series patch on LKML.org, I should send '0/2' which is the
history info for series patches.
Please use 'git send-email' to send the full series all at once,
otherwise it is hard to make the emails threaded "by hand" if you do not
do so.
I got it, thanks for your guide:)

thanks,
