Wrong. Edit a header adding a new type T. Later change an existing file that already includes said header to use T. Change a function, fix most uses. Find a wrong usage later and fix it separately. Change something, fix its Documentation/ later. Note how you can come up with dependent changes that _can't_ be detected automatically. -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 654239 Casilla 110-V, Valparaiso, Chile Fax: +56 32 797513 - 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/
