The patch the the Wavelan driver that I quote below introduces

If I were you, I would fix gcc rather than making my code
unreadable.
I write source code in C rather than coding ASM in hex

These patches have been going into all areas of the kernel for quite
some time.

Hi Linus,
I've got a question... I would like where to send my driver
patches...
One month ago, I sent a small update for the orinoco_cs driver
and Wireless Extensions. I didn't put all the changes I had for
orinoco_cs because I believe in small incremental updates
