Subject: [PATCH] Convert therm_pm72.c to use the kthread API
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 15:54:45 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <18272.47893.897716.632556@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com> (raw)

This converts the therm_pm72.c driver to use the kthread API.  I
thought about making it use kthread_stop() instead of the `state'
variable and the `ctrl_complete' completion, but that isn't simple and
will require changing the way that `state' is used.
