Hi,

It would be a Really Good Thing if we could look at the subject line
and see that this is for an ISDN driver instead of something else,
like even the general lockdep framework.

The Perfect Patch (http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/tpp.txt)
section 2.b. discusses this, but it isn't quite strong enough.  ;)


Thanks.
