I was thinking of doing this as a "take 2", after this set got in. I'm not sure if it's already there or not, but perhaps checkpatch could add a way to see if a new file is created in arch/*/include/asm/* that only adds an include of asm-generic (ignoring the #ifndef _FOO_H wrappers), and tell the user to use the generic-y += in Kbuild method. -- Steve -- 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/
