So... what's the status of this lot?

I've just merged this patch and the second one:

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Reserve the right performance counter for the Intel PerfMon NMI watchdog
Message-ID: <20070620183551.GC3251@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

but there was no followup discussion afaict.

Andi, Stephane: acks?

If acked, do we agree that this is 2.6.22 material?

Thanks.
