Hello, Greg
Sorry, I am newcomer, and I don't know why couldn't use #ifdefs? I only refer some kernel code(V4.19) in drivers/hwtracing/intel_th/msu.c.
Could you tell me why? And I tell my workmate to avoid the same case.
If I define a config in Kconfig, and static inline function in .h file, then call it? Could you accept it?
If not, Could you give me a sample?
Thanks,
Jun

There is no way to do this without these #ifdefs? That feels odd, why can't you just always test for this?
