I'm not sure whether that was intentional or not, but some of them could *really* use some explanation. Also, I don't think this patchset is really complete yet. The last patch in this set should be "Remove old private CIFS crypto routines". With the move to using the standard kernel crypto API, it seems like we should have a net reduction in code or at least something closer to 0. That would make it a lot easier to stomach taking in a large patchset like this. -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
