The phrase "bits 0 through 6" doesn't make any sense when bit 3 DOES NOT EXIST in the hardware, it's reserved, it's not there, so including it only confuses people and obfuscates the code. Please use the explicit bit mask composed of existing macros, which not only makes sure that the mask has meaning, but it also makes sure that reserved and non-existing bits are never referenced. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
