Paul, even if it is stupid, and strictly nonusual...
I want to thank you for your effort to make the Linux drivercode even more
bulet-proof. You are investing a great deal of time for those little BUGs

Thanks for your work.
BTW: dont you think that your locking will increase performance? Cause you

Gruss
Bernd
