No, not at all. Your situation is you object to the current way the USB subsystem binds devices to drivers (well, interfaces), and wish to rip the firmware out of a usb-serial driver that is working just fine right now. I still don't understand why you wish to take the firmware out and move it to userspace, why do you want to do this? Rainer's problem is a real bug in the USB driver code, which we need to work on getting fixed, vastly different from your objections. thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
