Subject: [RFC PATCH] drivers/dax: Allow to include DEV_DAX_PMEM as builtin
Date: Sat, 30 Mar 2019 11:12:05 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190330054205.28005-1-aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
This move the dependency to DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT such that only
if DEV_DAX_PMEM is built as module we can allow the compat support.
This allows to test the new code easily in a emulation setup where we
often build things without module support.
