Subject: [ofa-general] [PATCH net-2.6.24] Fix documentation for dev_put()/dev_hold()
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:04:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <adasl5bkfyx.fsf_-_@cisco.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <adawsunkg8i.fsf@cisco.com> (Roland Dreier's message of "Tue, 18 Sep 2007 10:58:37 -0700")
It looks like the comments for dev_put() and dev_hold() got reversed somehow.
