They need only sit in linux-next for a couple of weeks to get some wider compilation exposure. Other then that they are totally new code and are safe. Eventually they should be included into Linux-next through scsi-misc-2.6. I have only posted "ver 2" updates to a couple of patches that had comments by people but more patches changed. Mainly: - rename of scsi_dev => scsi_device - missing static keyword - Kbuild fixes and comments by Sam Ravnborg - small typos found on the way The new patchset can be reviewed at: git://git.open-osd.org/linux-open-osd.git linux-next http://git.open-osd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-open-osd.git;a=shortlog;h=linux-next or Based on current scsi-misc-2.6: git://git.open-osd.org/linux-open-osd.git osd http://git.open-osd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-open-osd.git;a=shortlog;h=osd I did not want to spam the mailing-list with somewhat same patches. I will post them, if any one needs me to.
