Please explain in the commit messages instead of the cover letter why this patch and patch 3 is necessary. There is a place for both depends and select. The thing is that users basically don't care about BCM2835_VCHIQ, they just want audio. With a depend it shows what they don't care about and hides what they want which is the opposite of how it should be. Michael's reference to Linus's email is too vague (not a URL) so I have no idea what he's talking about. Selecting BCM2835_VCHIQ doesn't pull in very much code, and it's all essential anyway. regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
