[PATCH 0/2] EM28xx patches for 3.2

[Chris Rankin]

Mauro,

I am resending the two patches for the em28xx driver which seem to have been 
missed for 3.2. The first one simply removes a stray bit operation on 
em28xx_devused, whereas the second tidies up the device/extension list handling.

It is possible that the first patch has been applied already. However, I cannot 
be sure because I cannot find a URL anywhere that will show me the current 
"HEAD" of the "pending for 3.2" tree.

BTW, did you implement a different solution for the DVB module trying to retake 
the dev->lock mutex? Because it looks as if both em28xx_dvb_init() and 
em28xx_usb_probe() are still calling mutex_lock().

Cheers,
Chris

No, I didn't find any time to look into it. Too much work here...

OK, then I'd probably better resubmit my final patch as well then.
