Hi, The commit ae7486a2b734ee03 (iwlwifi: fix Kconfig issues) in 3.17-rc1 breaks iwlwifi for kernels built without support for modules (CONFIG_MODULES=n). It changes the dependencies of IWLDVM and IWLMVM from depends on IWLWIFI to depends on m (while enclosing the whole set of options in 'if IWLWIFI'). Why that dependency on 'm' for apparently mandatory feature of the driver (without DVM and MVM, Kconfig comment says "WARNING: iwlwifi is useless without IWLDVM or IWLMVM" Up until 3.16 it was very well possible to operate iwlwifi built-in in a kernel without support for modules, either by building firmware into the kernel, or as needed re-binding the driver to the PCI device once filesystems were mounted. Removing those two 'depend on m' iwlwifi works fine for a 7260 wireless card.
