Hi,
I've progressed a bit in my endeavor to backport the sound drivers with
only a few compilation errors but I've reached a blocking point. The
audio drivers were converted to use parse_integer this summer but I
can't figure out how to back port this.
If I add include/linux/parse-integer to copy-list then there are tons of
redeclations.
If I modify backport/backport-include/linux/kernel.h to add a
conditional #include <linux/parse-integer.h> then I can't figure out how
to add a subset of this header file from the backport-include directory.
It's only a matter of time before others are impacted so maybe smarter
people than me have ideas on how to go about this.
Thanks,
-Pierre

Err, I can't even figure out what "parse_integer" is? Such a function
doesn't exist in my kernel

Neither does a file called include/linux/parse-integer(.h)
If you can point out what you really meant here then I'm sure this is
easy to fix, but without looking at the code (which clearly I can't)
there's not much I can do.

Probably it is not in because it was tagged as crap and not merged [1].

Oh, that thing. I actually saw that but didn't remember it was called
'parse-integer' :)

It is part of next-20150818, include/linux/parse-integer.h
It's also used by quite a few drivers now...

I guess you should wait until it's dropped from there ... or use a
snapshot from before when it was in. Perhaps it's already dropped,
since you're working on a month-old snapshot?
