Subject: lib/scatterlist.o needed by a module only - link it in unconditionally
From: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
lib/scatterlist.c is needed by drivers/media/video/videobuf-dma-sg.c, and
we would like to be able to use the latter without PCI too, for example, on
PXA270 ARM CPU. It is then possible to create a configuration with
CONFIG_BLOCK=n, where only module code will need scatterlist.c. Therefore
it must be in obj-y.
