To: Linus Torvalds, Andrew Morton; +Cc: linux-kernel
Here are 4 patches for your 2.6-git tree.
They contain:
- licensing fix for the xilinx_hwicap drivers (signed off by the
original authors)
- 2 dynamic debug printk fixes
- staging Kconfig fix
All of these have been in the -next trees and the -mm releases for a
while now.
Please pull from:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core-2.6.git/
The patches will be sent as a follow-on to this message to lkml for people
to see.
thanks,
greg k-h

The 'ret' variable is assigned, but not used in the return statement. Fix this.

GPLv2 doesn't allow additional restrictions to be imposed on any
code, so this wording needs to be removed from these files.

Both messages are missing the newline and thus dmesg output gets
scrambled.

You only need to remove the "Use in .. expressly prohibited bit", the
rest seems like useful relevant information.

As this ended up just being boiler-plate wording from an internal Xilinx
template, and didn't apply at all to these files, it seemed easier to
just remove the whole thing :)
