What if someone calls adf_remove? For a software implementation you can prevent the algorithm from going away by holding module reference counts. But a device can always be removed and you're not going to stop that no matter how many reference counts you hold :)No way! It is defined as static ;)
It's exported as a PCI device, no? PCI devices can be removed at any time through sysfs. Cheers, -- Email: Herbert Xu [off-list ref] Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
