In the first place, please document this stuff better than you have so far. To a minimum, add kerneldoc comments to all new non-trivial new functions to document what they are for and how they are expected to be used (especially the ones exported to drivers). Also, is there any guidance available for people who may want to use it? > Signed-off-by: Peter Chen <peter.chen@xxxxxxx> > Tested-by: Maciej S.

How they are going to figure out whether or not to set the new symbol in that kernel? Second, how users are supposed to know whether or not they will need it even if they build the kernel by themselves? It would be better IMO to set things up to select the new symbol from places making use of the code depending on it.
