Hi,

So are we leaving the generic-HDLC+PPP in broken state for 2.6.25,
aren't we?

If we do, perhaps a "|| BROKEN" in drivers/net/wan/Kconfig would make
sense? Any attempt to use it will cause kernel panic immediately (PPP
with generic HDLC only; drivers using syncppp.c directly are not
affected). I can make that trivial Kconfig patch of course.
