Subject: [GIT PATCH] driver core fixes for your 2.6-git tree
Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2009 15:20:21 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090109232021.GA10007@kroah.com> (raw)
Here are 4 reverts of patches that were previously pulled into your git
tree. They revert the ability for the driver core to have a private
area in struct device.
Thanks to Stefan Richter for pointing out the problems with the current
implementation, and for Alan Cox persuading me to rework the whole
thing, which I will do for the 2.6.30 release.
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
