OK, how about I change it to 9 just to show that it's arbitrary? As long as it's 2 times smaller than 26, there should be no problem, I think. I don't want to resend for such a small issue, so I'll wait until it turns around and change it. I am going to remove it completely when I revisit the naming and 26 devices limitation. -- Pete - 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/
