thanks to rabin and Eric Sesterhenn

If the patch has been pushed
into the linus tree, Then yes
if not then leave it open until further notice.
Comment 4 Rafael J. Wysocki 2008-08-11 04:33:50 UTC
Please only close the bug _after_ the fix has been merged into the Linus' tree and please provide the SHA1 hash of the commit containing the fix.

O.k.
hate to ask this but, how do I create a SHA1 hash
for the commit?("never really messed around with that stuff")
Comment 6 Venkatesh Pallipadi 2008-08-11 10:13:17 UTC
You don't have to create one. Once the patch gets into git upstream, you will have a SHA1 associated with the patch.
