[PATCH 0/7] NetXen: Make driver use multiple PCI functions

[PATCH 0/7] NetXen: Make driver use multiple PCI functions

[Linsys Contractor Mithlesh Thukral]

hi All,

I will be sending patches for NetXen 1/10G Ethernet driver in subsequent mails.
These patches are with respect to netdev#upstream and we wish their inclusion 
in 2.6.22 kernel.

Out of these the first 2 patches were already accepted into the netdev tree, 
but we have requested them to be dropped. So we are resending those 2.
Please see the following thread for more details :

Regards,
Mithlesh Thukral

So what does that mean?

If the patches were accepted, then you must send further patches 
cumulative to what is currently in the tree.  If it is already accepted, 
you cannot "drop" a patch.

My apologies for the confusion created by my email. 
We wish inclusion of these 7 patches in the netdev tree. All these patches are 
cumulative with what is currently present in the tree.
