    Sigh.

    s390:

    drivers/ssb/main.c: In function 'ssb_ssb_read16':
    drivers/ssb/main.c:489: error: implicit declaration of function 'readw'
    drivers/ssb/main.c: In function 'ssb_ssb_read32':
    drivers/ssb/main.c:497: error: implicit declaration of function 'readl'
    drivers/ssb/main.c: In function 'ssb_ssb_write16':
    drivers/ssb/main.c:505: error: implicit declaration of function 'writew'
    drivers/ssb/main.c: In function 'ssb_ssb_write32':
    drivers/ssb/main.c:513: error: implicit declaration of function 'writel'

    we shouldn't be compiling SSB on s390, because:

    config SSB
    tristate "Sonics Silicon Backplane support"
    depends on EXPERIMENTAL && HAS_IOMEM

    and

    akpm2:/usr/src/25> grep IOMEM .config
    CONFIG_NO_IOMEM=y
    akpm2:/usr/src/25>

    but

    akpm2:/usr/src/25> grep SSB .config
    CONFIG_DCSSBLK=m
    CONFIG_SSB=m
    CONFIG_SSB_SILENT=y

    well, how did that come about?

    It _has_ to be `select'. It's _always_ `select'.

    yup, it's `select':

    Selected by: B44 && NETDEVICES && NET_ETHERNET || BCM43XX_MAC80211 && NETDEVICES && !S390 && MAC80211 && WLAN_80211 && EXPERIMENTAL


    Look. Kconfig's `select' Just. Does. Not. Work. If you find yourself
    contemplating using it, please, don sackcloth, take a cold shower and
    several analgesics, then have another go, OK?

    ho hum.
