That doesn't matter, the first one to submit a change goes "first", everything that comes afterward needs to deal with that. We never tell someone that a patch isn't ok just because at some time in the future something else might change. That drives away developers and was one of the primary reasons other open source kernels have failed in the past. greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
