Searching for information about fuse and virtio, I finally noticed this
entry, which probably explains both fuse's “going away” and ditto for
some (but not all) virtio modules:
* Set CONFIG_VIRTIO_FS and its dependencies to builtin, to allow building
images that boot directly to rootfs (skipping the initrd)
as it changes:
-CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI=m
+CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI=y
-CONFIG_FUSE_FS=m
+CONFIG_FUSE_FS=y
-CONFIG_VIRTIO_FS=m
+CONFIG_VIRTIO_FS=y
Hm. This same argument can be used to include every storage- and
filesystem-related
module into the kernel. Why don't we have ahci and sd_mod built-in? This does
look quite a bit strange to me to include this stuff..
(This commit is not about big linux changes but about small debian changes ;)
