Good, I guess then either I'll have to do something similar to what ARM does:
| #elif !defined(readb)
|
| #define readb(c) (__readwrite_bug("readb"),0)
| #define readw(c) (__readwrite_bug("readw"),0)
| #define readl(c) (__readwrite_bug("readl"),0)
| #define writeb(v,c) __readwrite_bug("writeb")
| #define writew(v,c) __readwrite_bug("writew")
| #define writel(v,c) __readwrite_bug("writel")
|
| #define check_signature(io,sig,len) (0)
|
| #endif /* __mem_pci */
(but use the real BUG() instead, I don't think the above will still
compile now check_signature() is out-of-line)
And we'll all live with a check_signature() in our kernel, which is used
only by a few legacy drivers that depend on ISA || PCI...
OR I'll have to disable HAS_IOMEM on m68k, and invent a new Kconfig
symbol for lots of other stuff that currently depends on HAS_IOMEM...
