Nicholas, stop! Just stop.
You have been trying to send patches fixing FIX ME for the past few days. A lot of maintainers are really upset with you since you do not follow the proper procedures while submitting patches. Lots of maintainers have asked you to stop sending in patches. If you do not listen, they will start redirecting your mail to /dev/null. (many have already done that) Please read Documentation/SubmittingPatches atleast once. Please test your patches by _atleast_ compiling the kernel ensuring that your changes are compiling. There are other tasks to do than sending in code patches. Like documentation patches. Read the documentation and try to understand them. Fix spelling/grammar mistakes there. Once you are comfortable with programming in C, you can send it code patches. Frankly, your build testing is great and might be helping. Just report that builds fail, you don't need to send in code patches which you are not sure are fixes for the failures. Finally, join kernelnewbies mailing list and learn by asking/answering questions. Regards, -- Andev
