Stop whining. Really.
Everybody understands that it should be fixed. That's not the question.
But it should be fixed _quickly_. In this case, I have a bisection report FROM TWO DAYS AGO. And I'm still kicking myself for not just reverting that piece-of-shit commit then, because I spent the time to look at the oops and the commit, and could tell that it was crap.
Instead, I _did_ wait for the subsystem maintainer to get around to it. As a result of waiting, I've now wasted time for a lot of other people.
So stop your claptrap. You're wrong. I would suggest you now thank Dmitry, and ask his forgiveness for (a) wasting his time and (b) then berating him for it.
Linus
