So, the problem is the users expectations... If you look, at Tony's omap-for-v3.8/timer branch, patch: ARM: OMAP2+: timer: remove CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER it should change the expectations (at least I tried to do this in Kconfig file). So, to the question of honoring the config option - yes, but it is a work in progress on removing that one. If you have a real issue that you are trying to fix - it is totally different thing, but if it is just config option honoring... then I don't think we should merge this patch. -- Regards, Igor. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
