Should I be impressed by the fact that 16% of your patches caused bootup
problems, when we're really close to a -rc3, and *long* past the point
where we want to address regressions rather than cause them?
I simply want you to be more careful. *Much* more careful. As it is, I
end up always being afraid of merging your patch-series (and yes, I should
have found this even earlier when reading through the diff rather than
after I had already applied it, but I didn't, and we had a broken kernel
for a few hours as a result. I didn't see any bug-reports about this one,
so hopefully nobody noticed, but it still grates me).
Bugs happen, but (a) they should happen during the merge window, not when
we're in stabilization phase and (b) the percentages here were just not
very good.
