Re: [PATCH 1/14] LinuxTV.org DVB driver update

Hello Stephen,
This update broke the dvb network device changes to make it work with the
new rules about dynamic allocation for 2.6. It reverts the code to getting
the network device out of an array, so it will break if:
rmmod dvb_net </sys/class/net/dvb0_0/mtu
See:
Documentation/net/netdevices.txt
Thanks for spotting this, although I don't know what has gone wrong here
yet. (I don't know the DVB net code very well).
I'll review this, have a talk with the original author and then send an
update patch.
Unfortunately, I don't notice every patch that goes directly into 2.6
without getting postet on the linux-dvb mailinglist. Now if someone
changes stuff in our CVS in the same file, it can happen that the stuff
from the kernel is wiped out.
CU
Michael.
