SubjectRe: [PATCH] Fix dmesg_restrict build failure with CONFIG_EMBEDDED=y and CONFIG_PRINTK=n
From
Date
Maybe something like this is better?

Remove dmesg_restrict from kernel.h printk.c
Move dmesg_restrict to security/commoncap.c
Add extern int dmesg_restrict to kernel/sysctl.c
Use CONFIG_SECURITY_DMESG_RESTRICT as variable guard

uncompiled/untested.
