I reviewed and applied your latest changes to my working copy and didn't notice any problem. As far as stability is concerned, I think the driver is ready to enter the kernel main line. I can't contribute much to a cleanup, though, since I'm not too familiar with kernel policies (everything which compiles & works is fine for me :-).
Since there are already several branches in the subversion repository https://line6linux.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/line6linux/driver, I suggest to create a cleanup branch there if necessary before moving the driver to the main line (I am aware that many people prefer git, but using too many repositories for the same piece of software is getting tedious). What do you think? Kind regards, Markus ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
