Assuming not other review comes in, I consider this ready to go.

2 weeks most likely.

I've just sent Greg KH a pull request with the fix in it. He will hopefully
pick that up and then send a pull request on to Linus. Then we wait for the
next rc after that at which point Greg will probably pull it into char-misc-next or
I can always merge it into my togreg branch once it is in a release candidate of
Linus' tree.

In parallel with that I'll probably do a pull request for what is already in the
togreg tree to get a lot of stuff in char-misc-next for the next cycle. That makes
the history a little cleaner as I can fast forward my tree and end up with
whatever is in char-misc-next (hopefully including this).

Anyhow, a bit of tree juggling for me, but we have plenty of time as rc3 will probably
be out tomorrow and it normally goes to rc7 at one rc a week

Thanks,
