Hi Russell, I saw the patch below has made its way into today's linux-next tree. Last week I sent a few patches fixing similar issues in arm, but I was not sure if you are interested in such things to get fixed. Are you interested? Another question: Do you have means to notify the sender when you apply a patch? Besides having fun doing such things, I also have some research interest in it and I archive Kconfig related emails; a notification mail would make it easier.
Kind regards, Valentin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Valentin Rothberg <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Apr 28, 2015 at 6:45 PM Subject: [PATCH] arch/arm/mm/proc-arm925.S: remove dead #ifdef block To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Cc: Valentin Rothberg <[email protected]> The block could never be compiled; CPU_ICACHE_STREAMING_DISABLE has not been defined in Kconfig since the very first Git commit. Hence, we can safely remove the entire block. Signed-off-by: Valentin Rothberg <[email protected]> --- There is a similar looking option 'CPU_ICACHE_DISABLE'. However, I decided to remove the entire block since it could not be compiled for such a long time.
