Fixup: That's bullshit ignore it please. ecm_opts->bound is not used to take endpoints but only to register net device. Went too far after short reading. All in all, ecm is not working when binding form one udc to another. Don't know exact reason, but in my opinion it's more a bug than common assumption. -- Krzysztof Opasiak Samsung R&D Institute Poland Samsung Electronics k.opasiak@samsung.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
