Or just a single driver? I'm confused, what exactly is this supposed to do? If a bus, great, let's tie into the proper driver core bus code, don't "open code" all of that, as that's just going to make things messier and harder to work overall in the end. If a single driver, why is it called "bus"? :) thanks, greg k-h
