Please don't drop this driver just yet. The reason we kept it was for the DIO support that the loop back device lacked earlier. We need to do some testing to make sure the loop can completely replace this driver. > And should I drop this patch from the series? Yes since it is a noop. No other patches are dependent on it. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@linuxdriverproject.org http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
