Jeremy,
Commit 07147a06ac is all over the x86 tree:
arch/x86/mm/init_32.c | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------
include/linux/early_res.h | 3 +++
kernel/early_res.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
3 files changed, 65 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-)
... but there's no x86 person who acked it or was Cc:-ed to this commit AFAICS.
It
was not even posted to lkml! Nor does the commit title suggest that it affects
core
kernel code as well.
Also, the AuthorDate field is a total lie:

x86/32: honor reservations of high memory
This commit was written on Aug 2 2009, really? kernel/early_res.c, which is
modified
by half of this commit, was _CREATED_ in February 2010 ...
I realize that some original patch, much different from this one, was probably
written in 2009, and that via a series of undocumented rebases and
modifications to
the patch you achieved this state.
Crap like that is just _NOT_ acceptable, and you know that perfectly well - if
you
do this to arch/x86/ i'll be forced to ask for the Xen tree to be removed from
linux-next and be done via the x86 tree again.
Ingo
