[ CC Alexander ]

Can you or Marek (kbuild maintainer) please add also a Reported-by of
Alexander (see [1])?

Reported-by: Alexander Kriegisch <Alexander@kriegisch.name>

It's a bit a pity that you discovered this issue by yourself independantly.
As said in PM, the Freetz router project has included it when playing
with Kconfig of Linux-v3.1-rc9.

Thanks for taking care.
