Hi Greg,
After merging the tty tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:
drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb_con.c: In function 'sisusb_console_init':
drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb_con.c:1493:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'take_over_console' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
ret = take_over_console(&sisusb_con, first - 1, last - 1, 0);
