I'm starting to get tired of seeing new features be added to this chunk of code, and the other related bits, without any noticable movement toward getting it merged into the mainline tree. So, I'm going to take a stance here and say, no more new features until it gets merged into the "real" part of the kernel tree, as you all should not be spinning your wheels on new stuff, when there's no guarantee that the whole thing could just be rejected outright tomorrow. I'm sorry, I know this isn't fair for your specific patch, but we have to stop this sometime, and as this patch adds code isn't even used by anyone, its a good of a time as any. greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
