I fully agree with that statement.

Sorry, I missed that, largely for personal reasons (resulting in even
harder than usual lack of time).

Yes, it is horrible, and we should not do that.  I just commented on
patch 5/7, but the applies to the whole series:

We should reconsider the aforementioned commits (read: revert and/or
replace with a more sensible implementation).

We should really make sure to 1) keep the code readable and
2) especially keep the code compatible with Linux coding.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

the  good  people  and the bad people. You're wrong, of course. There
are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are  on  oppo-
