Please disregard this patch. I misunderstood the protocol and have found the actual problem in the hypervisor's 9P implementation. Sorry about the noise.

Ok, thanks for the notice.

As Eric says, this is fine to cc: stable with this kind of thing. It's good to get a "heads up" on patches that are coming, and Sasha runs some tests on them as well to make sure that they really are going to apply to what trees you think they should apply to.

Hmm, I'm really not sure how useful that is for first version of a patch that actually got refused ;) But if you both say it doesn't hurt I won't advise against it anymore, thanks for correcting me.
