I am extremely sorry for previous patches as I could not able to send in series. Please let me allow to send me those patches again in correct way. If you would say I will definitely send them in series.Can I send all the patches in series for rtl8712 directory if you do not mind ? _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
