Having an intermediate state where things are broken > will cause pain and additional work in case of bisecting. It will not cause a build error (see the previous patch for details.) The sysfs files will not properly show the correct data, that is all. The odds that you will hit this in a 'git bisect' is VERY low, and the previous patch states that the files are now broken, so there should not be any confusion regarding any user that might run across this. thanks, greg k-h -- 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/
