OK its been over 1 month without any replies on this patch which just removes commented out code. All the maintainers below bounce and the only e-mail not bouncing is for Sreekanth Reddy , he hasn't been seen active on linux-next since Jan 12 2015 when he did a driver bump for mpt2sas to 20.100.00.00. What's going on folks?
