What do you think about this patch? Will you sign it? It is no longer an
error-warning-fix but a bug-fix (and some cleanup).
I "took" you implementation of dgrs_(un)register_eisa(), especially
since eisa needed to be unregistered if pci succeeds (I take you word
for it to be so).
(BTW, this patch is compiled with CONFIG_PCI set, CONFIG_EISA set and
both set without errors/warnings for dgrs.o.)
This patch requirer the
"net-fix-compiler-error-on-dgrsc-when-config_pci.patch" (added to the
-mm tree after 2.6.15-rc1-mm2):
