Trivial or not, they are wireless LAN patches and they go here. FWIW, you posted them in the middle of the maintainer's merge window for 2.6.33. So for now only fixes are being merged. I wasn't sure these qualified, although upon closer review they may. It strikes me as strange that you are hitting two drivers to support one device. Are you saying that your ar9170usb has the goofy storage device thing using the same USB IDs that the zd1211rw devices like that used? I suppose that makes some sense given the shared heritage... We did just have a long (and possibly unresolved thread) about this type of practice (i.e. eject in the driver) not too long ago. But since zd1211rw is already doing this, maybe this patch is acceptable...? Anyway, I have your patch. Please be patient. John -- John W.
