[PATCH v2] scsi: core: Remove remaining references to the pktcdvd driver

From: Catalin Iacob <hidden>
Date: 2026-06-03 13:26:22
Also in: linux-mips, linux-scsi, linux-sh, lkml, sparclinux
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), mips, scsi subsystem, sparc + ultrasparc (sparc/sparc64), superh, the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Thomas Bogendoerfer, "James E.J. Bottomley", "Martin K. Petersen", "David S. Miller", Andreas Larsson, Yoshinori Sato, Rich Felker, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz, Linus Torvalds

Commit 1cea5180f2f8 ("block: remove pktcdvd driver") left behind some
CONFIG_CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD* references in defconfigs and around an
export. Remove them.

Signed-off-by: Catalin Iacob <redacted>
---
Found this incidentally while looking at kernel sources to understand
what pktcdvd is
---
Changes in v2:
- Reworded commit message on John Paul Adrian's suggestion to be about
  the removed references not the export symbol
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260530-remove-pktcdvd-references-v1-1-aa56941d4315@gmail.com
