We could do fence2.h if you absolutely insist and just forget about the current one, but that seemed silly. Like Gustavo said, everyone who actually cares about this stuff is perfectly fine with this. And there's not a single user of this in upstream anyway, so the only trees we could break are vendor trees with massive amounts of additional stuff. Is that reasonable ok for you, or do you insist we do a fences2.h without going through staging ? ;-) Thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
