I don't thing we should do case-insenstitive comparims in kernel, and in the few cases where we must (legacy OS fileystem support) it needs to be NLS-capable.
But once again we need to see the users anyway. You're adding tons of bloat in your patches without showing us an actually useful user. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
