Secondly, HAVE_SCHED_AVG_IRQ is defined poorly AFAICS, it should be 0/1 so it can be used as a replacement pattern in #if sequences - not in #ifdef sequences as your patch did. I.e. this needs to be sorted out and done properly, the concerns you voice are simply a side effect of this having been done badly. Thanks, Ingo
