Small clarification: I was of course referring to the original patch for the issue: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/9/498 stubs can be added properly with using #if defined(CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST) && !defined(CONFIG_ARCH_OMAP1) similarly like it is handled for ARCH_QCOM in drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_drv.h Best regards, -- Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Samsung R&D Institute Poland Samsung Electronics -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
