Subject: [PATCH] module device table restoration
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 18:00:19 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021120072654.322C02C087@lists.samba.org> (raw)

Patch from Adam Richter.  I have a nicer solution based on aliases,
but it requires coordination with USB, PCI and PCMCIA maintainers,
which is taking time.

This restores the old code in the meantime: one week without this is
too long or people who need it.  8(

Please apply unless Adam has objections,
Rusty.
