If it's not worth the trouble for x86 then I'd say have it depend on !X86 also. Newer EFI-supporting architectures are unlikely to have the same legacy issues as x86 so I don't think it'll end up being an ever growing list. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
