That space savings is why this was done the way it was. It would be nice to have "tailq" like interfaces in linux/list.h for situations like this. Please do not submit a patch implementing that until the 2.6.25 merge window, however, thanks. - 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
