It gets uglier and uglier. So if that abortion is really needed, it'd make more sense to rename the MOSTEK code. If that's not fixed, its Kconfig should mention needing the JS_RTC thing instead of the "real" legacy rtc.c ... Glad I got rid of my JavaStation ages ago, but I liked the idea of having a real builtin coffee cup holder. :) You see why nobody wants to touch the legacy RTC stuff? Some of it is broken *BY DESIGN* instead of just by pure happenstance of evolution. - Dave -- 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/
