[PATCH] More MODULE_ALIAS work, and documentation updates.
From: Rusty Russell
Date: Wed Sep 10 2003 - 02:57:02 EST
Hi all,
I know this is something of a megapatch, but I'm trying to get
all the module aliases people expect into the modules before 2.6.0. I
got most of these by reading the documentation: review appreciated.
If noone NAKs, I'll send to Linus in a couple of days. I'm
sure you can think of other aliases which should be added, too.
Thanks!
Rusty.

The rx_trigger= and tx_trigger= options can be used to set the FIFO trigger

values will decrease the number of interrupts; however, a value too high may
result in data loss. Valid values are 1 through 1023, with 768 being the

value indicates how long after receiving the last character that the ESP card
should wait before signalling an interrupt. Valid values are 0 though 255,

value too low will cause unnecessary interrupts. For example, to set the
