Hi Greg,
The new functions added to sierra driver with the 4 patches you applied
will be called by the modified code in the subsequent patches. My goal
was to submit the independent changes first and then add the
dependencies (i.e. the calls to these functions). I am sorry if I have
confused you.

Thank you very much for applying the patches. I will indeed have to
respin everything else and send it to you. We noticed that there were
changes in linux-next tree affecting sierra driver e.g. tty is no longer
a parameter in the prototypes, etc.

This is what I am planning to do:
--re-sync with linux-next which was re-generated today (June 2, 2009)
--apply greg-patches to linux-next and use the resulting sierra.c as
base for generating the rest of the patches.
--re-submit the rest of the patches as soon as possible.

Please let me know if this would work for you?
Regards,
Elina
