Hi Arnd,


2016-02-12 0:41 GMT+09:00 Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>:
> The Mediatek 8250 driver has a 'bool' Kconfig symbol, but that
> breaks when SERIAL_8250 is a loadable module:
>
> drivers/tty/built-in.o: In function `mtk8250_set_termios':
> :(.text+0x1bee8): undefined reference to `serial8250_do_set_termios'

> serial/8250/8250_mtk.c:287:242: error: data definition has no type or storage class [-Werror]
> serial/8250/8250_mtk.c:287:122: error: 'mtk8250_platform_driver_init' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
>
> This changes the symbol to a 'tristate', so the dependency on
> SERIAL_8250 also works when that is set to 'm'.
> To actually build the driver, we also need to include <linux/module.h>.

As mentioned in 4/6, this hunk might become unneeded if
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8289231/
is accepted.
