Sorry for that, my goal was not to send more than 10 patches just to illustrate my questions. It looked more efficient to make the patches available for analysis instead of spamming you. I sent a RFC patch series to the list, it would help me a lot if you can give me some feedback, mainly hints about the questions on the cover letter. Thank you for the feedback Sergei Shtylyov! I'll include your suggestions in the next series. > > -- > balbi -- Peter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
