Hi Greg,

This is a 6 month old kernel. 2.6.38. I am now working to get the
results in 3.2.1 kernel. I cross checked and most drivers still have
these problems even though in some cases the line numbers have changed
by an offset.
I will send the 3.2.1 results as soon as I can to this list. I am
mostly facing issues with macros like DEFINE_TIMER which just breaks
all over analyses and have surprising spread all over the drivers
directory.

But as I said earlier, most of the problems still remain, in many
cases with the same line numbers..

Thanks,
Asim
