Greg, this v2 series addresses some corner case build issues. One was spotted late by 0-day after I used Linus' tree for build tests rather than linux-next, and another I found on my own. 0-day covers more ground with testing if you use Linus' tree. The one cought by 0-day was in that in the case when the firmware loader is modular (actually rare these days) the new sysctl table for the configuration of the fallback interface needs to be built in as well, as otherwise the proc sysctl interface can't access the configuration. The other build issue was a misplaced "static" on a fallback call. 0-day now gives its blessings for both, on linux-next and on Linus' tree. Questions, feedback, rants all equally welcomed.
