Subject: [PATCH] EISA: Move devlist.h out of obj to always
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2025 19:37:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250423023743.work.350-kees@kernel.org> (raw)

I put devlist.h into the wrong Makefile macro ("obj") to get it included
in "targets". Put it into "always" so nothing tries to link against it.
Solves CONFIG_EISA=y i386 build failure:

ld: vmlinux.a: member drivers/eisa/devlist.h in archive is not an object

Reported-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/4a8ba1d0-d2d9-41f8-abf1-d45ec8996d10@infradead.org
Fixes: dd09eb0e2cc4 ("EISA: Increase length of device names")
