Before LZO code is sent to Linus, its selection in Kconfig should be
made orthogonal to the current zlib selection code.
This means:
1) Options in lib/Kconfig hidden (selectable by drivers as required)
LZO as hidden option has no practical sense. Although LZO should be
auto-selected when some dependent project is selected (e.g. reieser4)
- there should be separate patch for this. Mixing such changes with
'core' LZO patch will just add side noise.
2) Decompression and Compression support separated, as read-only
filesystems only need to build in decompression support.
Ok, I will do this. I wonder if some difference in opinion in such
things can actually cause 10+ extra RFCs?
Cheers,
Nitin
