This patchset (or the linux-wimax GIT tree at git.kernel.org) merges the WiMAX subsystem and driver for the Intel 2400m Wireless WiMAX connection to the tree. We'd like to get it in for the 2.6.29 merge window.You've made this difficult by creating the dependency on the USB changes. So I can't, for example, merge this into the networking tree. Is there some way you can make the driver work without the USB changes even with some hack?
I know, but there was little choice. The error paths for device recovery depend on those changes. That's why I suggest posting through gregkh's tree once you guys give your approval. Then after it goes into the first merge window and it permeates to your tree, I'll rebase the linux-wimax tree to have you as upstream.
Second, put the wimax stack stuff under net/wimax just like we do for net/mac80211 et al. Then just the drivers go under drivers/net/wimax
Oh, good point. Will do. I'll send updated patches today. Thanks, -- Inaky
