Hi,
I found that CONFIG_KMOD was already removed in linux-next tree.
This seems to result in many breakages. For example, I cannot mount a
FAT device automatically because of failure of automatic loading of
nls modules.
My particular problem would be fixed by the patch below, but I found
CONFIG_KMOD is still referred in many places.

Anyone working on this? It must be trivial.
Or, revert the following for the time being until all these are fixed:

remove CONFIG_KMOD
Now that nothing depends on it any more, remove CONFIG_KMOD.
