given that:
1) drivers/Makefile doesn't even have an entry for the acorn/ subdirectory, and
2) the Makefile drivers/acorn/char/Makefile is incorrect anyway, since it contains:
obj-$(CONFIG_L7200_KEYB) += defkeymap-l7200.o keyb_l7200.o
which refers to a non-existent source file keyb_l7200.c, and it's based on a non-existent config variable on top of that. it certainly seems that that entire subdirectory can be tossed.
and if that happens, then the config variables defined in drivers/acorn/block/Kconfig:
config BLK_DEV_FD1772 config BLK_DEV_MFM config BLK_DEV_MFM_AUTODETECT
would also vanish, which suggests that any references to *them* could also be deleted:
$ grep -r BLK_DEV_FD1772 * arch/arm26/defconfig:# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772 is not set arch/arm26/machine/dma.c:#if defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772) || defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772_MODULE) arch/arm26/machine/dma.c:#if defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772) || defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD1772_MODULE) ...
anyway, you get the idea. thoughts?
