Run 2.4.0-test11-ac3
Hi Alan,
is change to field name temporary, and name will be reverted back
to flags, even although contents may differ between 2.2.x and 2.4.x, or is there features to stay? Currently VMware does
"^\(features\|flags\).* tsc"
but question is - should we leave it here, or revert it back?
BTW, as I told couple of times here, if you have problem with VMware
on 2.3.x/2.4.x kernel, please first visit news server news.vmware.com and look into vmware.for-linux.experimental newsgroup. If you'll not find fix/workaround here (this one is there since Tigran pointed it to me more than week ago - Nov 15, 02:59 CET), post question to that forum. I watch that newsgroup almost continuously during my working hours (that is aprox. 12:00-24:00 CET Mon-Fri).
Thanks,

I believe we should change it back. Until Linus makes a decision then I dont think its final by any means.
features breaks stuff, flags seems not to
