Thank you very much for your details valuable information. I will/should try my best to let it pass allmodconfig, and I guess https://lkml.kernel.org/r/201211161520.03974.arnd@xxxxxxxx is valuable to me, and I will/should reference it. I will/should try to finish allmodconfig within one month, but excuse me, I have to do it in my free time as a volunteer, so maybe it needs longer (but at least, it should be finished within 2014-1-31). Thanks.
