Seems reasonable, as CONFIG_COMPUTONE was deleted in this: - commit 51c9d654c2def97827395a7fbfd0c6f865c26544 Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Wed Jul 6 16:48:28 2011 -0700 Staging: delete tty drivers Delete the drivers/staging/tty drivers as no one has wanted to step up and maintain and fix them. This was discussed in commit 4a6514e6d096716fb7bedf238efaaca877e2a7e8 (tty: move obsolete and broken tty drivers to drivers/staging/tty/) Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Alan Cox Cc: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- For future reference, the option "--irreversible-delete" to format-patch is a nice way to avoid sending hundreds of lines of meaningless binary data in e-mail.
