Dan,
I just posted a patch that changes all the pointer math for the
comedi_subdevice to array access.
It's based on top of the changes I have already posted for the
comedi subsystem. As long as Greg doesn't find any issues with
those, this patch should apply cleanly.
If I need to I will rebase it.
Regards,
Hartley
