Acked-by: Michal Marek In fact, I can't even reproduce the original bug with 2.6.27 + the initial staging series. I also do not remember any fix for such bug in the recent years. 4b024242e8a4 ("kbuild: Fix linking error built-in.o no such file or directory") is related, but fixing a different problem.
