Subject: [RFC patch 0/3] remove pci_driver.owner and .name fields
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Content-Length: 812
Lines: 25

I'm willing to submit patches to remove pci_driver.owner and .name
fields. pci_driver.driver.owner and .name will be used instead.

Patch 1 prepares the core pci code for future removal of the 2
fields, but actually do not remove them. As suggested by Al Viro,
pci_driver.driver.owner will be set by pci_register_driver.

Patch 2 is an example of driver's update. There will be lots of
patches like this.

Patch 3 is the final touch, after all pci_driver.name and
pci_driver.owner are removed.

Any comments ? Feel free to correct my bad english.

thanks
