And that requires a review from my side, which I've not been able to do yet... It seems there's a number of dependencies that the code depends on, and trying to push to remove an interface which is used on to-be-merged code which is being _actively_ worked on to bring it to merge standard is just stupid - that's a recipe for forcing folk into a corner where they'll never have everything merged that they need for their particular set of code. The alternative is that the code which uses it could be merged as is, albiet without the dependents, so effectively it couldn't be built. But then it'll satisfy Andi's grep that there are users in the tree. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
