I just realised that you already have the blocked_sw / blocked_hw one's queued. This just changes the name of blocked_sw and blocked_hw to "soft" and "hard". I don't know what you wanna do. I'm fine with blocked_hw and blocked_sw as it's referenced as such (hw/sw) in the code, but Marcel wanted to get away from the "hard blocked by hardware" notation, as it suggests that the transmitter could only be blocked by hardware... cheers, Flo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Could you just submit a third patch that makes the requested name changes? Thanks! John -- John W. Linville Someday the world will need a hero, and you linville(a)tuxdriver.com might be all we have.
