So as discussed internally, nfit.h will have to wait for the ACPICA's NFIT support to prevent clashes from happening. Also please CC *all* *patches* with "ACPI" (or "acpi" etc) anywhere in the subject/changelog/body to [email protected]. More comments likely to follow. Thanks! -- I speak only for myself. Rafael J.
