I meant:
diff --git a/include/linux/connector.h b/include/linux/connector.h index 96a89d3..361996c 100644 --- a/include/linux/connector.h +++ b/include/linux/connector.h @@ -38,6 +38,7 @@ #define CN_W1_VAL 0x1 #define CN_IDX_V86D 0x4 #define CN_VAL_V86D_UVESAFB 0x1 +#define CN_IDX_BB 0x5
#define CN_NETLINK_USERS 5
