From: Ranjith Lohithakshan <ranjithl@xxxxxx> Date: Wed, 17 Feb 2010 17:17:01 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] omap: Remove DEBUG_FS dependency for mux name checking The check for a valid mux name should be performed regardless of whether DEBUG_FS is enabled or not. Otherwise without DEBUG_FS, we get: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 pgd = c0004000 [00000000] *pgd=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] last sysfs file: Modules linked in: CPU: 0 Not tainted (2.6.33-rc8 #10) PC is at strcmp+0x18/0x40 LR is at omap_mux_init_signal+0x68/0x14c ... This fixes the issue currently seen with boards not booting up if DEBUG_FS is not enabled in defconfig. Note that the earlier ifndef + ifdef now becomes simpler ifdef else: If CONFIG_OMAP_MUX is selected, we use pin names. If it's not selected, we only want the GPIO to mux register mapping.
