About a quarter of the time when non-netdev maintainers add IDs, through the magic of merges, we've wound up with duplicate IDs in the driver. I've snipped several duplicate IDs from tulip and other net drivers over the years.


sure. But in this case Dominik IS the maintainer

Bus is far less relevant. Should sbus and SoC bus patches skip subsystem peer review? Of course not. PCMCIA is not a special case here.


Further, in the past Brodo has _already_ been asked to CC relevant maintainers and lists -- or at least LKML -- with his patches.


he mailed the relevant list, linux-pcmcia ... whats wrong?

linux-pcmcia is not the place to talk about IDE and net driver patches.
