SubjectRe: [linux-usb] __initcall diff, version 2
Hi,

I like the idea of this __initcall patch for USB.
However, I've searched other 2.3.4x drivers and found
very little use of __initcall.

Is this because __initcall is relatively new, or that
there are problems with it? If problems, what kinds
of problems?

Thanks,
Randy
