This was step #4, restoring module reference counting for chip drivers. At this point, binary and source compatibility with Linux 2.4 is completely restored (at least as far as reference counting is concerned), although it was almost already done at step #3. Last step is to make bus drivers dependent from chip drivers as soon as a client registers /proc entries. And then we are ready to release 2.9.0 :) -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
