But frankly, this code sucks. The original patch that I reviewed had problems that indicated a total lack of testing.. and that was just for a subset of the patch series that I actually reviewed in detail. Even the design of the entire patch series is questionable even if we weren't trying to move to a userspace MLME (and we need to, because kernel space MLME is a *dead end*). The patch series also introduced sparse errors. Do I need to go on? Make the code suck less and we won't have to go through this again. It's that simple. It's not about being aggressive or offensive. It's about having some standards. Now of course, this also happened because Linville didn't see much and assumed it was okay. If a patch needs review (and a patch series of this size *needs* review), go ahead and ask for a review (or remind me I need to do one!). I don't have much time this summer for writing code, but I will make sure I have time to review code, especially if Jiri Benc is not around. -Michael Wu
