a bit more pedantry ... in init/Makefile, i see this test:
ifneq ($(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD),y)
obj-y += noinitramfs.o
else
obj-$(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD) += initramfs.o
endif
which is perfectly correct, but since BLK_DEV_INITRD is defined as a
boolean, it can be assigned only yes or no, so is there any reason
that second assignment wasn't written simply as:
obj-y += initramfs.o
sure, it's picky, but whenever i see Makefile content of the form:
obj-$(CONFIG_FOO)
i take into account that that could be a tristate setting. if it
isn't, it just makes more sense aesthetically to me to use "obj-y" for
clarity.
is there a coding style note about this sort of thing?
