I think how you've fixed it is OK, actually this whole MP rewrite could use some more auditing :-) Applied, thanks Dan. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
