Subject: Re: [Linux-parport] [PATCHv3 2/2] Add force_epp module option for parport_pc.

Hi,

this thread has been very interesting. I feel that I'm one of the 
"instigators" to solve this f... bug in the kernel. But, it seems that it's 
quiet difficult, more because the kernel developers than the bug itself. 

But well, to be honest, the kernel developers do a great and complex job, so 
probably they have good reasons to react in that way. Think that it's the 
second time that a patch to solve this bug is rejected.

Thanks Matwey for the patch and the afford to solve this bug. I have several 
boxes in the lab where I work (Dell 745) that suffer that false positives.

Also, there's some pci card that also suffer that. I think that we have one. 
But, I'm not sure.

So, I can check whatever could be necessary.

Best regards,

Leopold
