[Usbirboy-devel] Problems with kernel 3.16

[Alan <lam...@gm...>]

After updating my kernel from 3.15 to 3.16.1 I found these problems:

1. The err() and dbg() macros don't exist anymore.  Perhaps they
should be replaced with dev_err() and dev_dbg(), but I wanted a quick
solution, so I did this:
#ifndef err
#define err printk
#endif
#ifndef dbg
#define dbg pr_debug
#endif

2. After overcoming the compilation issue, it can't decode any
signals, instead I get these kernel messages:
[ 3138.828899] usbirboy: Dev Vendod: 0xfffe

...

Any idea?
