Subject: RFC: [2.6 patch] let BLK_DEV_UB depend on EMBEDDED
Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2004 01:16:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041220001644.GI21288@stusta.de> (raw)

I've already seen people crippling their usb-storage driver with 
enabling BLK_DEV_UB - and I doubt the warning in the help text added 
after 2.6.9 will fix all such problems.

Is there except for kernel size any good reason for using BLK_DEV_UB 
instead of USB_STORAGE?

If not, I'd suggest the patch below to let BLK_DEV_UB depend
on EMBEDDED.
