Re: [PATCH 7/7] gnu: Enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI.

[David Craven]

Mmh, I think that forcing binary blobs out of the linux kernel is only
useful if vendors move more work into the driver and silicon instead
of firmware that cannot be updated, since each flash device is a
security risk. But it could also backfire. The thunderbolt firmware
for example is only updateable from windows. That leaves me with a
crashy hdmi output and doesn't stop the NSA from flashing it anyway
and getting access to my PCIE bus - definitively not an improvement
over a binary blob...

I'll push these patches if there are no objections then. Can I
regenerate a pgp key? I think my keys where in the gnome keyring or
something, backing up ~/.gnupg/secring.pgp didn't keep my keys :/
