Alex,
In jmicron driver I did move functions around and renamed them.
I am not against doing that in separate patch.
But for mspro driver, it would be really hard for me to split it.
I have rewritten a lot of code there.
Can't we just review the end result instead of the patch?
To split the patches, I pretty much need to rewrite the whole thing once
gain.
I don't want to do that.
Best regards,
Maxim Levitsky
