Subject: Re: [PATCH 2.5.68] Convert elan-104nc to remove check_region().
Date: Mon, 5 May 2003 10:01:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030505170118.GA17276@doc.pdx.osdl.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20030505044653.D296B2C255@lists.samba.org>
All the request_region() calls in this driver (plus all the now removed
check_region()) calls are commented out because of conflicts with the PIC.
The release_region() call below was NOT commented out. If the driver
isn't really requsting the region it shouldn't be release it. So, I
commented it out.
