No. It's after the merge window, and I'm not interested for 2.6.23. Why cannot people learn? If it didn't get into -rc1, it's not in. It really is that simple. I shouldn't have to shout at people.

I/OAT / dmaengine patch merge path has been a complete mystery and unestablished. Dave Miller acked these patches during the merge window, so if Shannon can only send these to you during that period, and you are 100% likely to miss the Acks, this will never get merged.

Perhaps David should start merging I/OAT stuff instead? Someone else? Chris had the same issues when he was maintaining this.
