I doubt you're going to get many comments on this patch, being so large and spread across all drivers. I'm not going to bother trying to edit this down to something more sensible, I'll just plonk my comment here. For the mvpp2 driver, you're only updating a comment - and looking at it, the comment no longer reflects the code. It doesn't make use of tasklets at all. That makes the comment wrong whether or not it's updated. So I suggest rather than doing a search and replace for "tasklet" to "BH blahblah" (sorry, I don't remember what you replaced it with) just get rid of that bit of the comment. Thanks. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
