Bluetooth update for 2.6

Hi Dave,

this is the second part of pending updates of the Bluetooth subsystem for the upcoming 2.6.18 kernel. A couple of them are only coding style cleanups which I failed to submit for the previous kernel release. They slipped somehow. The rest is driver model integration stuff. Please push them to Linus as soon as possible.

Regards

Marcel

The merge window for 2.6.18 is closed, so you will need to eliminate things like code cleanups and other non-bugfixes.

Hi Dave,

yes, I saw that, but actually these patches were meant to get to you before the merge window closed. I failed to prepare the tree, because I lost remote access to one of my machines were I unfortunately had queued all of these patches. Do you think Linus will make an exception?

Regards

Marcel

I actually hope that he won't.

He even let it go beyond a week this time, it was closer to 2 weeks. This gave you ample opportunity to merge your changes in on time, sorry.
