I really can't see why you'd do things this way, especially since interrupt handlers under Linux now unconditionally always run with cpu interrupts disabled. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
