Except my proposal would have put all the initialization order information together, instead of putting some information in the source and some in the Makefiles.
NONE OF IT IS IN THE MAKEFILES! Please change your perspective to see this!
If you have a dependency concern, you put yourself in the right initcall group. You don't depend ever on the order within the group, thats the whole idea. You can't depend on that, so you must group things correctly.
Again, if you have some dependency within the initcall group, then you're grouping things incorrectly. If the grouping is selected properly, you could link in the total opposite order all the objects and it still would work out fine.
I think your complaints are for problems that don't really exist. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
