And any device that is just bypassing all of the existing bus logic is still tying into the driver core directly (which is a bad thing by itself, but that's a different matter.) And there's a shutdown method there too. So there is no excuse to not use it. Please, if they complain, point them to me :) thanks, greg k-h
