04 & 05/32; Overall, excellent cleanup, esp. in all the various drivers, since driver replication is common, and that'll help correct future drivers (wishful thinking, I know...). Note that the comment of eliminating pci_is_pcie() and incorporating it into the pci_pcie_capability_[read,write]_[byte,word,dword]() functions could be applied to other patches as well (06, 10 ... and that I stopped looking due to time constraints & repetitiveness... since this is RFC, not final patch post). -- 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/
