These files > are then deleted. > > The visordriver_callback_lock has been switched to a mutex. > > Several module parameters and structures were removed that were no > longer being used. > > Moves drivers/staging/unisys/include to include/linux/visorbus > and moves drivers/staging/unisys/visorbus to drivers/virt/visorbus. > > Changes since v3: > - Updated patches to apply cleanly on top of staging-next > - Modified patch comment to point to correct destination directory > > Changes since v2: > - Fixed comments raised by Neil Horman regarding return -1 changes > - Fixed kernel-doc style comments for visorbus driver, and added > kernel-doc documentation for many more functions > - Reworked visorbus so we did not need notifier_lock > > Changes since v1: > - Added the patch staging: unisys: visorbus change -1 return values > -
