Yes, I at a cursoary glance the hppa (and m68k) patches do
seem to contain portions that could be put in the main patch-set.
But I don't think that 2.6.12-10 is the time to do this, nor do
I think there is any rush to do it. More to the point, I only
took a cursoary look, so the patches may well be best left
where they are, though perhaps broken out a bit - one of the
best things our kernel packages have done over the past year
is to be very good at breaking out patches to correlate
to chanlog-entry level changes.
