I asked that earlier, see: > http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg36027.html Yes, and I'll have to give you the same answer as then. But, Greg, Antti makes a very valid point here. The generic code assumes that it owns intfdata, that is you cannot use it as is for access to anything that lacks its own interface. But this is not a fatal flaw. We can alter the generic code to use an accessor function the driver can provide and make it default to get/set_intfdata What do you think?
