Oh wait, I guess you're right, or this should just be part of patch 1
instead so we never have the feature without the requirement to have the
interval given.
Yeah, I could squish this with the previous patch (1/3), but I just
reckoned that patch was getting too big, so I decided to make a separate
one.
If this whole patch series is taken at the same time, I guess there
won't be backwards compatibility problems (except for bisecting,
maybe?).
Anyways, I'll leave it as your choice. Squishing the patch is easy
enough. ;)
Ah, and one more thought... There's no driver implementing this at this
point, so is there anything to really worry about?
Yeah, good point, no big deal. We can keep it -- I just didn't even
understand why Ben thought it would not be compatible but it makes sense
if you just look at the patch by itself.
I was a bit confused..didn't realize it was a new command that had just
been added. I thought someone was adding a required member to the existing
scan logic.
So, I have no complaints.
Thanks,
Ben
