The thing is that ramoops switched to pstore just recently, and the
patch is in -mm tree.

(Just for the record, I use linux-next-20120504, HEAD at commit
44449d2b34aca3b1)

Yep.

There's a cross-tree dependency with -mm tree, as it appears.

So, I'm not sure which is better:

1. Push the whole pile of patches via -mm; or

2. You apply the two patches from -mm tree before my series:
   	"ramoops: use pstore interface"
   	linux-next commit 60aad9fc1f04ca19e800c5984ad84f405d133a11
   and
   	"ramoops: fix printk format warnings"
   	linux-next commit f2a28afdb529c43a7eb21fd0c991cab5676ef011

   http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ seem to not respond at the
   moment, so I guess the easiest way to grab the patches would
   be to cherry-pick the two commits above from the linux-next
   repository. That way Andrew would automatically drop them
   from his tree.

Thanks!
