As you can see in this thread, when I send my patches "ARM: S3C24XX: Ad= d=20 samsung-time support for s3c24xx" and "Add samsung-time support for=20 s5pc100". They didn't add "select GENERIC_GPIO". http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.samsung-soc/13432/focus=3D14= 980 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.samsung-soc/13432/focus=3D14= 982 There is something wrong with the commit, I see that "select=20 GENERIC_GPIO" was added in my patches by mistake. I recommend you to speak directly with samsung's kernel maintainer that= =20 I CC in this mail. Regards, Romain Naour
