I think the current upstream location is correct. This matches the practice of eg iw_cxgb3 as well as cxgb3i, bnx2i etc. This does have the disadvantage that mlx4_en and mlx4_ib are not auto-loaded by PCI hotplug, but so it goes. -- Roland Dreier || For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/index.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
