If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 48ab67853fb218a16595923bea09120032931c5a Author: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Apr 22 15:35:11 2021 +0200 net: enetc: fix link error again [ Upstream commit 74c97ea3b61e4ce149444f904ee8d4fc7073505b ] A link time bug that I had fixed before has come back now that another sub-module was added to the enetc driver: ERROR: modpost: "enetc_ierb_register_pf" [drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/enetc/fsl-enetc.ko] undefined! The problem is that the enetc Makefile is not actually used for the ierb module if that is the only built-in driver in there and everything else is a loadable module. Fix it by always entering the directory this time, regardless of which symbols are configured. This should reliably fix the problem and prevent it from coming back another time.
