Hey,
I wanted to make some suggestions for you to do before sending a patch.
I recommend using tools like ftrace and the old classic printf
statements to verify that the code is doing what you are saying that the
code is doing.
If you are having trouble with the less intrusive tools, you can use
kgdb to verify your own code does what is expected, but do not use it as
a final verification because it is too intrusive and changes overall
kernel behavior.
Let me know if you are having any problems or need help with something.
Thanks,
David Hunter
