[PATCH 0/8] VME Driver Fixes

From: Manohar Vanga
Date: Mon Aug 01 2011 - 06:29:36 EST


A little background: I work at CERN in the device drivers section and
we have a lot of VME crates we use in the accelerator controls. We have
been using an in-house driver for some time now and want to slowly port
our existing device drivers over to the kernel driver.

This set of patches adds multiple changes to the VME driver that fix
various issues, mostly dealing with the device driver model. Some of
these are based on the changes made by Emilio G. Cota in a previous
LKML thread at:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/25/480

Thanks and best regards,
Manohar Vanga
