Hello Andrew,
Thank you so much for your kind advice and willingness to help a newbie
become a valued kernel developer. I am committed to acquire necessary
knowledge and skills to contribute more than current cleanup and minor
correction patches. I am sure that the upcoming Coccinelle based project
work [if I am shortlisted] will be much more complex and meaningful.

I will explore the staging directory to identify a hardware I can afford.
I would welcome suggestion on a driver that is not much expensive and
complex to start with. Anything for the networking subsystem???

Thank you once again!
./drv
