I suppose at a later date we could turn that into a union with a short name like u (so comedidev->pcidev would become something like comedidev->u.pcidev), which would allow us to stick a 'struct usb_interface *' or some other hardware device wrapper struct pointer in the same hole. (Maybe 'h' for 'hardware' would be better than 'u'.) -- -=( Ian Abbott @ MEV Ltd.
