Hi Hannes,

Hmm.....after doing the changes when I saw the md5sum they are
different :-( . Considering that I have done only whitespace fixes,
few comments which exceeded 80 cols and replacing __initcall with
device_initcall(). The sizes of object files are same.
How should I go about finding why is the difference ?

[ removing LKML from cc, since this is probably a newbie question  and
not suitable for list.]

Thanks -
Manish
