For the last release, I stated that I thought the 2.6.22.12 release
would be the last one in the 2.6.22.y series.  Since then, I've received
a number of other patches that would be nice to have in the .22.y tree.

So, for a while, I'll keep the 2.6.22.y tree open, doing new releases
every once in a while as they accumulate.  I do this, for no other than
the selfish reason that I use it every day on my openSuSE 10.3 boxes as
that is the kernel base that release is on :)

If anyone has any objections or questions about this, please let me
know.

thanks,

It certainly is one of the most valuable reasons. If all people were
"selfish" enough to contribute what they do only for themselves, we

Oh no, please keep it going on for as long as you want, I'll rebase my
version on it instead of 2.6.20.y ;-)

Thanks,

In that case you might be interested in picking up the attached fix :)
I don't know if you already didn't get it...

[PATCH] rd: fix data corruption on memory pressure

The patch is currently in mm but not yet upstream. As soon as it is merged,
this patch is a good candidate for stable.
