| |
Hi,
Here are some driver core patches for 2.6.10-rc1. The majority of them have all been in the -mm tree for a while. They contain: - bugfix for the hotplug calls that was breaking all firmware downloads. - sysfs backing patches. Finally Maneesh can rest... - add a "driver" symlink in devices to make it easier to determine what driver is bound to a specific device. - other bugfixes.
Please pull from: bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/linux/driver-2.6
thanks,
greg k-h
p.s. I'll send these as patches in response to this email to lkml for those who want to see them.
