it's OK, and your resubmission was better - but it still had a linewrap
problem (i was able to fix that up manually).

this bit:

@@ -44,7 +44,7 @@ Protocol 2.07: (Kernel 2.6.24) Added paravirtualised
boot protocol.
and KEEP_SEGMENTS flag in load_flags.

[3 lines]

should have been:

If you post from gmail it might make sense to send patches as MIME
attachments, we can process them just fine. (as long as you send patches
that go via -tip - other maintainers have different policies regarding
MIME attachments)
