I see your point, but I don't think it matters at this time. If we had all the core and driver code unified and the only thing preventing us from going from two widely ued kernel targets to one was adding the sysfs interface that would be an easy puill to swallow. But there is a lot of work to make that happen. Just adding a stub that isn't used in tree to support out of tree modules really isn't something we do, so I have no problem with a plain outright rejection of it. -- 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
