While the hisax drivers are the only remaining drivers using pci_find_device(), converting them to pci_get_device() will require careful review of the patches. I don't think it's worth the review time to remove pci_find_device() three months earlier. I would encourage you to merge the replacements for the hisax drivers soon though ;-) -- Matthew Wilcox Intel Open Source Technology Centre "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours.
