The patch titled V4L1: make PMS not autoprobe when builtin. has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was v4l1-make-pms-not-autoprobe-when-builtin.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: V4L1: make PMS not autoprobe when builtin. From: Rene Herman <rene.herman@xxxxxxxxxxxx> The old Mediavision Pro Movie Studio legacy ISA V4L1 driver was found to hang the boot during Ingo Molnar's testing of randconfig kernels. Have it require a "pms.enable=1" kernel parameter to enable the driver when builtin which avoids such problems. This is a deprecated and, very likely, unused driver. Nothing changes modular behaviour moreover.
