Then you could try compiling with differents configurations and see if any problem/warning arises. i.e: # git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git # make randconfig # make 2> warnings.log # cat warnings.log Also the staging drivers located at drivers/staging/ are a great place for janitors/beginners. Those are drivers that compile but need some work and cleaning before been accepted in mainline. Look at the TODO files for the drivers to see what work is needed. The easiest job is looking at the coding style if it is following the coding style specified at /Documentation/CodingStyle.txt.
