Subject: Re: [PATCH] : CDC EEM driver patch to be applied to 2.6.30 kernel

Thanks for your quick feedbacks.
I have tested your patch with our device and it's working well.

I have also added the TX side support for ZLP (see patch herein).
Please note that I can't test this issue as our device doesn't support it yet.

By the way, Just for curiosity, I have two questions about your patch
(see bellow) :

Thanks,
Omar

why did you use 1 << 11 instead of BIT(11) ?

 Why do you prefer returning 0 and not incrementing
"dev->stats.rx_errors" instead of returning 1 (in all the cases) and
incrementing "dev->stats.rx_errors" in the error cases?
