X-Git-Tag: v2.6.32-rc1~670^2~62 X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d4a433fc4e9c7dbfc2069a8f1a1f4338b982427;p=linux.git PCI: Document pci_ids.h addition policy. IDs should generally only be added to pci_ids.h when they're shared across several files in the tree. IDs that are just used by a single driver should be defined in the driver instead. Perhaps documenting this is a good idea to prevent things being moved there, as it still seems to be happening judging from the git log. (based on discussion w/gregkh and others).
