I agree with you about get(). Allowing NULL argument doesn't really help anything. It only increases the chance of getting things wrong. I'm all for not allowing NULL argument to get(). For put(), as I wrote before, I think allowing NULL has some advantages and I don't care either way as long as it's not confusing. The 'not confusing' part is way more important to me than advantages of either way. -- tejun - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
