Sample:
config FOO
	bool "This is foo"
	depends on BAR

config BAR
	bool "This is bar"
	depends on FOO

This will result in following error message:
error: found recursive dependency: FOO -> BAR -> FOO

And will then exit with exit code equal 1 so make will stop.

build scripts: fixdep blows segfault on string CONFIG_MODULE seen

The string "CONFIG_MODULE" appearing anywhere in a source file causes
fixdep to segfault.  This string appeared in the wild in the current
mISDN sources (I think they meant CONFIG_MODULES).  But it shouldn't
segfault (esp as CONFIG_MODULE appeared in a quoted string).

If the find(1) in scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh generates any errors, it
will cause gen_initramfs_list.sh to fail (because of "set -e"), however
the errors from find are not printed to the user. This is rather confusing:

~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
make[2]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz] Error 1
make[1]: *** [usr] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** wait: No child processes.  Stop.
make: *** [_all] Error 2

It is much easier to work out what the problem is if we let the errors
from find hit the console, eg:

~/src/powerpc$ make O=~/build/powerpc-cell32/
find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/home: Permission denied
find: /home/michael/initramfs-source/lost+found: Permission denied

Make kbuild handle compressed cpio initramfs-es.  An already compressed
cpio is copied directly to usr/, while a non-compressed cpio is filtered
through gzip (no changes here) on its way to usr/.

If the user has created a compressed cpio by other means, this saves him
from uncompressing it, just to be compressed again by kbuild.

I'm currently using CROSS_COMPILE="ccache arm-linux-".  With that the bash
builtin command "type" searches for ccache and arm-linux-mkimage and so sets
MKIMAGE="/path/to/ccache" as I don't have arm-linux-mkimage.  Then the script
dies with an error, that ccache doesn't support the argument -A.

This patch adds some quoting such that it works again for me.

Please note that this patch doesn't help you if you use ${CROSSCOMPILE}-mkimage
and ccache as mkuboot.sh now searches for the command
"ccache arm-linux-mkimage".

The following patch adds some extra clarification to the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO

Most system calls seems to get added to i386 first. This patch
automatically generates a warning for any new system call which is
implemented on i386 but not the architecture currently being compiled.
On PowerPC at the moment, for example, it results in these warnings:
init/missing_syscalls.h:935:3: warning: #warning syscall sync_file_range not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:947:3: warning: #warning syscall getcpu not implemented
init/missing_syscalls.h:950:3: warning: #warning syscall epoll_pwait not implemented

The file scripts/checksyscalls.sh list a number of legacy system calls
that are ignored because they only makes sense on i386 systems.

This script is a companion to the "cleanfile" script.  This cleans
up a patch in unified diff format *before* it is applied.  Note that
the empty lines at the end of file detection *requires* that the diff was
taken with at least one line of context around each hunk, or bad things
will happen.

This script cleans up various classes of stealth whitespace.  In
particular, it cleans up:

- Whitespace (spaces or tabs)before newline;
- DOS line endings (CR before LF);
- Space before tab (spaces are deleted or converted to tabs);
- Empty lines at end of file.

The Marvell IDE interface on my machine would hit a BUG_ON() in
lib/iomem.c because it was calling ata_pci_init_one() specifying just a
single port on the host, but that would actually end up trying to
initialize two ports, the second one with bogus information.

This fixes "ata_pci_init_one()" so that it actually passes down the
n_ports variable that it got from the low-level driver to the host
allocation routine ("ata_host_alloc_pinfo()"), which results in the ATA
layer actually having the correct port number information.

And in order to make it all work, I also needed to fix a few places that
had incorrectly hard-coded the fact that a host always had exactly two
ports (both ata_pci_init_bmdma() and ata_request_legacy_irqs() would
just always iterate over both ports).

This patch changes the docs and behaviour from "all states valid" to "no
states valid" if no .valid callback is assigned.  Users of pm_ops that only
need mem sleep can assign pm_valid_only_mem without any overhead, others
will require more elaborate callbacks.

Now that all users of pm_ops have a .valid callback this is a safe thing to
do and prevents things from getting messy again as they were before.
