On the somehow related topic - CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT which is introduced by commit 3e5ba59bbab878f60b8b87004ac55a464bddc819 ("block: implement CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT") is way too intrusive to be enabled by default if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL is set as it easily results in no longer bootable systems (+ help entry for the new option says "Say N if you are unsure."). Tejun/Jens: please consider changing this.I have change the default to 'n' for now.
I will do this for today as well. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
