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,
