Sorry, your are completely correct here. The following three patches
have been commited to lio-core-2-6.git/linus-38-rc1 to change
NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC, DLM, and OCFS2_FS from:
'depends ... && SYSFS && CONFIGFS'
to:
'select CONFIGFS'
and queued into scsi-post-merge-2.6.git/for-linus to fix this in
mainline. Linus, please review and pull:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/scsi-post-merge-2.6.git for-linus
Thanks,
Nicholas Bellinger (3):
