Subject: Re: [PATCH] staging: rtl8188eu: os_dep: usb_intf.c: Cleaning up
 uninitialized variables

Hi

I mail about this for the first time in early May, but ther were many
other faults in the design of my patch then, had several different
types of errors in the same path etc.


So good that someone was inspired to make a real patch of it even then :)

And i'm getting the linux-next to check before I send any more patches.


Best regards
Rickard Strandqvist
