If it turns out more people have misgivings about it, I'll adjust the code. -- Best regards, Michał Kępień -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
