I'm not working on this (and I've not time to work o= n=20 any kernel stuff, currently), as you might have guessed (even from the lack= =20 of an answer). You could maybe help yourself, and you could also suggest this task to=20 kernel-janitors (look for it on Google, it's a collection of simple tasks f= or=20 wannabe kernel hackers). The problem is that cleaning up such stuff isn't always trivial, one must f= ind=20 out why there is a mention of an unknown symbol, and fix the original=20 problem. If one discover that some source is never built, maybe the symbol= =20 should be reintroduced. And so on. Good bye and good luck =2D-=20 "Doh!" (cit.), I've made another mistake!
