Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] small mca cleanup
To be fair -- if you posted this as part of a fuller patchset to move us
away from Linux-synced files and towards a new fully thought-out method for
handling MCA/MCE then I'd have no problems with it (but maybe I would with
the patchset as a whole :-). It's just I see no sense in applying it in
isolation.
