[PATCH] Allow building hid.ko as an "external" module

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For quickly testing USB HID quirks with a larger community, it is useful
to be able to build hid.ko as an external module, e.g., against the
source code of the running kernel.

Before this patch this failed as follows:
```
