I don't understand what you mean by "in time sequence"

Sorry for unclear sentence. This means I will work them step by step in chronological order.

  TODO:
-- remove the defined feature as kernel versions
-- remove OS wrapper functions
-- remove custom debug and tracing functions
+- remove most of warnings reported by checkpatch.pl
"most"?  Why not all?

I will end up to remove all of warnings (I must make it) but I need to do them step by step. Most warnings are
from both camelcase and line over 80 characters. They will be removed after most warnings are removed to avoid
confusing new driver coming soon. Again, I will remove all of warnings.

+- remove OS wrapper functions to use kernel API as is
Why reword this, the original line is just fine.

Good point, I agree with you.


  - rework comments and function headers(also coding style)
  - replace all semaphores with mutexes or completions
-- make spi and sdio components coexist in one build
Why remove this item?  It's not done and needs to be done.

The first two lines are still in my TODO list. Do you mean coexistence of spi and sdio? If yes, I will recheck
the driver to find out good solution as you recommend.

+- remove compile warnings related to 64 bit machine
That's a given, I'm not enabling the build of the driver until that
happens. Please work on that next, coding style fixes can happen after
that.  As of right now, this driver is marked BROKEN.

thanks,

greg k-h

As you mentioned, I believe it's very important to break down BROKEN status. I will soon send the 64 bit patches
to remove compile warnings while fixing coding styles at the same time. As you know, there are the structural issues
to resolve them in the driver, for example, redundant casting which causes build warnings and the codes are not
readable. However, I will cut down all of them.

Thanks,
Tony.
