I pulled it this time, but I'm starting to get really irritated with you.
These look like real fixes, but quite frankly, by -rc5, that IS NOT
ENOUGH.
They need to be _regressions_, not just cleanups and fixes for things that
have never worked. And this is starting to be a pattern with the omap
tree: you're not honoring the merge window properly.
Just "it's a bug-fix" or "it's deleting unused code" is not enough. The
point of the late -rc series is to fix problems from the merge window, not
add new changes. I realize that you think that all the new changes are
obviously good, but the fact is, bugs happen even in "obvious bug-fixes".
And that's why we have the rule about late-rc pulls being about
_regressions_ and/or major oopses/security issues. Not just random
development that are meant to improve things.
