Message-ID: <1245527124.30962.14.camel@yio.site> (raw)

The final piece of the driver core name limit. We are about to remove
BUS_ID_SIZE.

Some patches may still be in your queue. Just to make sure, we will
finish our task this time: David, David, James, Takashi, can you please
give an update, or take care of removing the last instances, or let me
know if you want a patch, or let us know, if we should just change it to
"20".

  $ find . -name "*.[ch]" | xargs grep '[^_]BUS_ID_SIZE'
  ./drivers/mtd/nand/txx9ndfmc.c:	char mtdname[BUS_ID_SIZE + 2];
  ./drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.c:	char bsg_name[BUS_ID_SIZE]; /*20*/
  ./arch/sparc/kernel/vio.c:	if (strlen(bus_id_name) >= BUS_ID_SIZE - 4) {
  ./sound/soc/txx9/txx9aclc.c:	char devname[BUS_ID_SIZE + 2];

Thanks a lot,
Kay

Subject: Driver Core: remove BUS_ID_SIZE

The name size limit is gone from the driver-core, this is
the removal of the last left-over.
