Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] staging: pi433: fix problem with division in
 rf69_set_deviation

Hi Greg,

already had a discussion concerning that patch with Dan yesterday.
I really don't know what's going on there. I detached the patch once more from
my outbox and had a very close look in an editor and looked at it with a
difftool. In my outbox the patch is fine. I really don't knwo why it reaches you
crapped.

Since there are contsant problems with my patches, I will stop sending patches
for a while. As soon as I can find time to deeply confess with the tooling, I
will start over with trying.

Concerning this patch: You can use Arnds Patch from yesterday instead:
[PATCH] staging: pi433: use div_u64 for 64-bit division
It's a bit different to my patch, but according to yesterdays discussion, it
should also fix the problem.

Sorry for any inconvenience,

Marcus
