    Thanks for the response! I was wondering were everyone was. :)

    Only one of the patches I've posted till now should contain any
    potential userspace API changes. The mkiss.c patch changed the return
    value of the SIOCGIFENCAP/SIOCSIFENCAP ioctl. Previously, the result of
    the put_user,get_user would be silently ignored, now it's passed back.

    In short, for these patches I've attempted to keep them "obviously
    correct" cleanups and bug-fixes, with no functional or API changes (as
    yet). When and if I attempt a functional and/or API change, I'll be sure
    to clearly indicate so.

    Keep well,
    -- Hans.
