Dear David, No, they are not. I guess you were misled by the structure of the patches. There is nothing I can do about it. Please notice that usb_read() is created in 2/3, and I'm free to use the name of the variables I like in new functions. Furthermore, usb_read() is untouched in 3/3. I can see why you thought they are renames :) > > I think you'll need 'reverse xmas tree' ordering as well. > I didn't know this rule, but I must agree that this style is horrible. I'll change the order of variables declaration for the purpose of fixing this ugly "reverse Xmas tree". Thanks for your review.
