At that point, a massive patch will be needed that changes all instances of: unregister_netdev(dev); my cleanup... kfree(dev); // becomes release_netdev(dev); new release_netdev() will release the dev kobject at that point. I have the code ready, just been waiting till all net device's converted. Prefer not to break the world at this point. - 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/
