Thanks for taking care of this.

I pulled the changes minus the keypad stuff into lcd4linux-0.10.1-RC2=20
and it compiled and worked fine. That doesn't mean a lot though because=20
my two test displays (LUIse and PicoLCD) don't use the udelay stuff (I=20
wonder why the header is included in their drv_*.c) :-/

Did you test the changes? I'd like to include the patch in Gentoo soon=20
before the 2.6.22 headers are going stable.
