Well... The HSS driver, especially the TDM part, is a real mess. I plan to push the HDLC part (without TDM) into the official kernel, the TDM part will stay in my private tree until something happens (such as release of the firmware docs and/or source so I can remove the hacks). But, of course, I can include your changes in my tree, if they aren't way more hackish than mine, of course :-) -- Krzysztof Halasa -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
