This looks suspicious. 8250 should need serial_core, but there's no
way in hell serial_core should require 8250.
Seems to be caused by the kgdb patches, which add the following to
serial_core:
+#ifdef CONFIG_KGDB
+ {
+ extern int kgdb_irq;
+
+ if (port->irq == kgdb_irq)
+ return;
+ }
+#endif
+
and kgdb_irq comes from the 8250 module.
Tom, can this dependency be solved before kgdb goes near mainline
please?
