You are right... ~/kernel/linux-3.7.6$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/leds/leds-ot200.c Bryan Wu <[email protected]> (maintainer:LED SUBSYSTEM) Richard Purdie <[email protected]> (maintainer:LED SUBSYSTEM) [email protected] (open list:LED SUBSYSTEM) [email protected] (open list) Next time I will add Bryan to CC > >> 2013/1/23 GMEINER.Christian <[email protected]>: >> >> -----Urspr__ngliche Nachricht----- >> >> Von: Christian Gmeiner [mailto:[email protected]] >> >> Gesendet: Mittwoch, 23.

I got a bug report in our in-house bug tracker so it would be great if this patch can make it into 3.7.x series. thanks -- Christian Gmeiner, MSc -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
