I then ended up rediffing and posting the updated patch (you've now added to mm): http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/454031 Sorry for the confusion -- how's this (too verbose): --- Maintain module-parameter name consistency with qla2xxx/qla4xxx. The recently added the iSCSI qla4xxx driver contains a global (non-static) variable that clashes with a pre-existing variable present in qla2xxx. Commit d7a297baa6edea94167163bed808c6a8933bd5aa added a 'qla2_' and 'qla4_' prefix to the offending variable name. Replace the 'qla2_/qla4_' prefixes with 'ql2x/ql4x' to maintain consistency with other module-parameters.
