Adrian, if you're interested in tackling this "fun" problem, have a look at add_preferred_console() and find a way to make that not marked __init. (it's called by sunserial_console_match) That's what causes this dependency chain of __init problems for the Sun serial console drivers. It's problematic, furthermore, because even if one could call add_preferred_console() from a module properly, it doesn't have the desired effect of changing init's stdin/stdout/stderr - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
