From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ipc/ipc_sysctl.c: remove fallback for !CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL Compilation of ipc/ipc_sysctl.c is controlled by obj-$(CONFIG_SYSVIPC_SYSCTL) [see ipc/Makefile] And CONFIG_SYSVIPC_SYSCTL depends on SYSCTL [see init/Kconfig] An SYSCTL is selected by PROC_SYSCTL. [see fs/proc/Kconfig] Thus: #ifndef CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL in ipc/ipc_sysctl.c is impossible, the fallback can be removed.
