Oh, right - a fix for this specific issue rather than a fix for whatever
change he made.

introduced by fe761bcb9046029 (net: fsl: expands dependencies of
NET_VENDOR_FREESCALE) which enables build of the Freescale networking
drivers on arm64.  Since in common with many other architectures arm64
does not provide a NO_IRQ (and even those that do aren't consistent) the
driver should be modified to not rely on this and instead check the
return values of the functions it uses to look up interrupts.

This is happening because there are stub functions provided in the
driver's thermal.h for !THERMAL cases but these are guarded by an #ifdef
not an #if and so fails to do the right thing if the thermal code is
built as a module.  It looks like this was somehow triggered as part of
the reorganisation of the WiFi directory structure.

Thanks, I'll apply the fix soon. Just wait for comments from others
first.

This is surprising and also worrying, any ideas why? It would be good to
understand the root cause in case there's a bug in wireless drivers
directory reorganisation.

No, I didn't make much effort to check though since the use of ifdef was
clearly a bug waiting to happen anyway, I was more surprised it worked
at all than anything.

Michal Marek explains[1] that this is due to commit cf4f21938e13
("kbuild: Allow to specify composite modules with modname-m") and has
nothing to do with the wireless drivers reorganisation. I'll drop this
patch as Michal will apply his fix to the kbuild tree.

It still ought to be fixed regardless of why it showed up - the
intention of the code is that we build the real thermal code regardless
of if that's modular or not but that's not what the code actually does.

Like I said above Michal will apply a fix to his tree. Read the full
