It doesn't matter in this case. The "don't break the build at any stage of a series" preference exists because it's extremely irritating to hit a won't-build in the middle of a git-bisect operation.
But anybody who is bisection searching for a bug won't want to enable a brand-new driver in their config, so no problems. - 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/
