Hi Alexandre,
After merging the rtc tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:
ERROR: "legacy_pic" [drivers/rtc/rtc-cmos.ko] undefined!
Caused by commit
d3e3a65c6a96 ("rtc: cmos: Do not assume irq 8 for rtc when there are no legacy
irqs")
"legacy_pic" is not exported to modules.
I have used the rtc tree from next-20170407 for today.
I already send out a patch to fix this yesterday. I've attached a copy.
Regards,
Hans

Subject: [RFC] x86: i8259: export legacy_pic symbol
The classic PC rtc-coms driver has a workaround for broken ACPI device
nodes for it which lack an irq resource. This workaround used to
unconditionally hardcode the irq to 8 in these cases.
This was causing irq conflict problems on systems without a legacy-pic
so a recent patch added an if (nr_legacy_irqs()) guard to the
workaround to avoid this irq conflict.
nr_legacy_irqs() uses the legacy_pic symbol under the hood causing
an undefined symbol error if the rtc-cmos code is build as a module.
This commit exports the legacy_pic symbol to fix this.
