Yes, that does have similar constructs, but that does compiles OK: $ make init/do_mounts.o CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-parisc CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CC init/do_mounts.o while: $ make fs/nfs/nfsroot.o CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-parisc CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CC fs/nfs/nfsroot.o fs/nfs/nfsroot.c:403: error: __setup_str_nfs_root_setup causes a section type conflict -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
