We do cut some slack for people whose first language isn't English. However, if you're a native speaker, there's really no excuse for not spell-checking the changelog. Remember - nothing screams poor workmanship quite like wrinkles in the duct tape. > directly in the if statement and return true by itself removing > rt_status to improve the code's readablitiy of return statements > in fw_download_code. Do one thing per patch. Especially when you're still trying to convince us that you're in fact able to do one thing correctly in a patch. + skb_dequeue(&priv->rtllib->skb_waitQ[TXCMD_QUEUE]); + return false; You have been told before regarding this patch that this bypasses a call to write_nic_byte() at the end of the function. I see zero discussion of why you consider it safe to do so, nor do I see any indication that you've researched whether or not skb_dequeue() is sufficient to deal with cleaning up after a non-initial fragment. Sorry Nick, but I've pretty much reached the point where any further patch from you that doesn't fully address already-mentioned review comments (including general comments on procedure and the like from *other* patches) are going to be silently tossed into my bit bucket.
