If there's a misunderstanding of the potential here, of the commercial potential, or the user-demand for these patches (which now touch absolutely no existing *.{c,S,h} files, then I'm willing to communicate those things to whomever needs it.
This is not a toy. The goal is not to continue modifying the kernel or make anybody's life hard. The contrary is true - I don't want any modifications. These are extremely simple patches to fix one pair of broken instructions in PVI mode.
Coming from an x86 company, I'm betting Linus will get this in a nano-second. Let's not speak for him.
