Subject: [uml-devel] [PATCH 16/19] UML - Fix CONFIG_RAW dependencies
Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2008 13:56:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080425175616.GA11202@c2.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)

From: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@crashcourse.ca>

Add the BLOCK dependency for RAW_DRIVER, to match what's in
drivers/char/Kconfig.  Also, while we're there, update the alleged
obsolesence of RAW_DRIVER since it doesn't seem to be going away any
time soon.
