I remember something actually did "won the approval". Don't remember the details but I think it included conditional compilation, not changing CONFIG_* macros (using different name(s) instead, just not starting with "CONFIG_"), and IIRC no changes to Kconfigs. At least I don't remember any objections to that last version so I assumed it's closed. Perhaps it was just a dream, who knows :-) Nevertheless a fix outlined above would be acceptable, wouldn't it? -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
