Subject: Re: Linux 2.6.39

Here's some more funny business that was new after rc7-git12:

warning: (AX88796_93CX6 && RTL8180 && RTL8187 && ADM8211 && RT2400PCI &&
RT2500PCI && RT61PCI && RT2800PCI && R8187SE) selects EEPROM_93CX6 which has
unmet direct dependencies (MISC_DEVICES)
warning: (ACPI_APEI) selects PSTORE which has unmet direct dependencies
(MISC_FILESYSTEMS)

The exact same .config didn't do that with rc7-git12,
but does do it with 2.6.39 final.

Odd thing is, if I select both MISC_DEVICES and MISC_FILESYSTEMS,
but do NOT select anything from under either of those,
the warnings go away.

Which likely means the warnings are totally bogus.

Cheers
