Hi Hugh,
How about map an unmap each pte?
I mean remove the pte++ and use pte_offset_map for each incremented
address and then pte_unmap. So each incremented address is an index to
get the next pte via pte_offset_map.

I have an usb-cardreader here that needs some FORCELUN-entries in
scsi_devinfo.c.
lsusb says about the device:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0483:1307 SGS Thomson Microelectronics Cytronix 6in1
card reader
Patch see below. Please apply.
--- linux-2.6.11-buju/drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c
I committed to a fairly complex project to run on Linux while
assuming that the Linux stack implementation would provide
equivalent functionality to that of the BSD-style stacks I am

This patch changes bcu.c to calculate clock at any time.
Because clock can be changed.
Moreover, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPLs are added to it.

Hi.
My first response is: this is a recipe for great confusion among users.
I'd far rather see things only make it into your tree when they've been
thoroughly tested (in -mm and prior to that). Following that strategy,
your tree could always be relied upon to be stable and -rcs would only
