[linus/master] Merge branch 'fix-max-write' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/teigland/linux-dlm It's building find for me: $ crossmake drivers/usb/gadget/fsl_udc_core.o \ drivers/usb/gadget/fsl_mxc_udc.o > /dev/null (crossmake is an alias to make ARCH=arm) Arnd, are you maybe missing a merge of v3.8-rc6 ? I can see that imx_udc.c is broken still, but there are no maintainers for that driver. I'm adding Sascha to Cc list, maybe he knows someone who can help, but if this driver isn't fixed in 2 merge windows, I will schedule for removal from tree and someone else will have to re-introduce it later without all the bogus includes.Ah, I see what happened now: I submitted a patch that lumped together two patches, disabling both fsl_mxc_udc and imx_udc. You already had a fix for the first one, so I dropped my patch, but now I see the build error for the second one that my patch was avoiding. The last patch to imx_udc that seems to have seen more than just build testing was probably "USB: gadget: imx_udc: don't queue more data when zlp is to be sent", while fsl_mxc_udc looks actively maintained. It's not completely clear to me whether these are actually two drivers for the same hardware, of whether imx_udc is the i.mx1 variant and fsl_mxc_udc is the i.mx2 variant. What I can say is that no platform in the kernel currently defines an "imx_udc" platform_device, so it is certainly unused, and has been since at least e08300043e in 2010. I would suggest that we mark the imx_udc driver as 'depends on BROKEN' right away, since no in-tree user needs it, and any out of tree user is already broken in 3.8. I also wouldn't mind removing the driver unless the imx maintainers have a plan for it.Sure, someone just send me a patch for that and I'll be glad to mark it BROKEN.
