First of all, please do not put patches in attachments.
As for the patch, an infinite loop is *much* worse than a panic. When one is installing a new kernel on remote box, having it booted with reboot on panic and loader falling back to old kernel on the next boot is a bloody good idea - gives you extra safety. With your patch it will get the box stuck. - 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/
