Hi Mike,

I reviewed your tree , which is indicated by the email above, and compared it 
to a tree I built from the v4l 'trunk' repository + Siano's patches. 
I found out two things -
1) The trees are still *very* differ from each other
2) You applied *new* things that are _not_ included in the "old" Siano's 
patches (and some of them even break it).

I'm wondering what is the status of the Siano's patches merge to the main tree, 
and I would like to ask what is the target date for final merge. This is 
critical for us since till now, we told people to download the v4l 'trunk' and 
apply the various patches (which are available to to all on the vger server) on 
it. The current state voids that option, and the result is invalid drivers (I 
tested the your tree, and it fails the very first Siano's QA sanity test).

I would like to ask you to stick with Siano's patches, which are solid, tested 
thoroughly, and work on multiple devices (including mass production). 
We talked about altering some minor stuff (like the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, external 
functions calls and indentation) this does not mean that we want to create new 
set of drivers or alter the drivers architecture. 

If there are substantial changes you think should be applied, first merge all 
previously committed patches, and than submit new patches for review.

Please note that are multiple patches awaiting to be submitted from Siano (and 
some other parties via Siano), that I'm holding till the merge will end. So 
lets keep the order [1] merge old Siano's patches [2] submit review and merge 
pending Siano's (exist) patches [3] Submit new patches for review.


Regards,

Uri
