I added a branch on my tree with Arnaud patches and my additional patch, at:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-next.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/kconfig_fixes

This way, we avoid loosing the patches, and people might use it to remove those warnings.

Cheers,
Mauro

PS.: I don't intend to merge them on my master branch, as the proper way is to submit it
to 2.6.37 via Michal's tree. Also, it will may cause conflicts on linux-next, due to the
bison-generated files.
