I'm sure it fixes the problem, but I don't feel like we should revert it. I can't be sure it won't cause any other problems, and anyway, this does not look right a solution. Any other driver (rightfully) requiring the SSB_HOST would then also break the bcm43xx driver. I'll send an simplified patch in a few minutes. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
