Sorry, I can't understand why it's more descriptive, could you help with more information? It seems to me that the device driver needs to know what each parameter is and how to set them, and that process is also required in your proposed solution - "with 2 different functions", right? > > @@ -112,7 +117,6 @@ void wwan_port_rx(struct wwan_port *port, > > struct sk_buff *skb); > > */ > > void wwan_port_txoff(struct wwan_port *port); > > > > - > > /** > > Unneeded change. > Yes, I will rollback it. > thanks, > > greg k-h
