Ah, very nice, I've wanted this for a while now, it would make a number of different drivers much smaller and simpler to add new device ids to (no multiple lists of ids, one for the module loader and one for the sub-driver that is in the single file.) If this doesn't break any userspace tools, I have no objection to it at all: Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@linuxfoundation.org> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
