Can you please try to answer my questions instead of throwing random
blurb into my direction?

Just for the record. The thread evolved from here:

<tj> * mod_delayed_work() can't be used from IRQ handlers.

My answer was:

<tglx> This function does not exist. So what?

Which was completely appropriate as this function does not exist
though you used it as a primary argument for your patches.

Now your answer to my reply was:

<tj> It makes the workqueue users messy. It's difficult to get
completely correct and subtle errors are difficult to
detect / verify.

Can you please point out any relevance to my question which would have
me prevented from writing the following?

<tglx> Ah, the function which does not exist makes the users
messy. Interesting observation.

So instead of saying, that you wrote an utter nonsense reply you
accuse me of being obnoxious:

<tj> Can we get a little less snarky please? It's tiring.

Can you please sit down for a little while and think about your own
snarkiness and your own tiring behaviour against other kernel
maintainers?

Thanks,

tglx
