Yes, but that driver was soundly rejected by the network driver maintainers, so I wouldn't go around showing that as your primary example of how to use this interface :) The point is valid, I don't think these apis should go into the tree without a driver or some other code using them. Otherwise they make no sense at all to have in-tree. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
