Hi,

Linux next tree(20090626) produced the following build error:

CC [M]  drivers/mtd/maps/sbc8240.o
drivers/mtd/maps/sbc8240.c:31:1: warning: "DEBUG" redefined

drivers/mtd/maps/sbc8240.c:177: error: 'struct mtd_info' has no member named 'module'

make[2]: *** [drivers/mtd/maps] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/mtd] Error 2

I remember reporting this back in April, when it was suggested to remove
the code as it is no more used:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/4/21/476,

I tried to gather some more info about this driver from the link
mentioned in Kconfig:
http://www.windriver.com/products/sbc8240/,
without much success.

The original author of this driver code has no problem, as she has
expressed by the following mail:

Last time i did not address: linux-mtd at lists.infradead.org. If there are
no issues, can you please apply this patch to remove it ?
