Mistakes happen. Fair enough. They happen all the time. This time around,
for the 2.6.18-rc1 thing, I had heard more than the usual "nobody even
reacted", as Andrew had held up two patch-series of his because of that
issue..

So that makes me like it even less than usual when I'm told that a problem
with something I merged was apparently known BEFORE IT WAS MERGED.

So Adrian's report on its own wouldn't have caused a revert.

As far as I can tell, you were cc'd on all of these things, along with
the linux-acpi mailing list.
