Re: [patch 04/33] m68k: Atari keyboard and mouse support.

What's the reason for splitting this up? Things would be a quite a bit
simpler if all the code was directly in atakeyb.c.

This is a good reason why filename comments are a really bad idea :)

Please don't use volatile variable in kernel code. While linux/m68k doesn't
support smp or preemptible kernels we should at least put in proper synchronization
at the API level.

DECLARE_BITMAP()

Please kill the typedefs and shouting names.

__MODULE__ is never true and even if it was a MODULE_PARM wouldn't compile.
use an unconditional module_param instead.

Is this really a separate bus? Should't we have a BUS_ONBOARD or so instead?
