For Linux, if there are functions/operations that are always needed by
all drivers (or even some), then those functions are provided in the
core kernel with header files or in the library. So if you are writing
a single driver, and find you need to create something that looks very
"generic", either you are doing something that no other driver has ever
needed before in the history of Linux, or you are doing something wrong.
Which do you think it is here? :)
Please fix this up and do it properly. Your driver should only have 1
#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT line, and that was in patch 1 for this series.
Nothing else should be needed if you create your structures correctly.
thanks,
