Subject: [PATCH v2 09/11] firmware: enable to force disable the fallback mechanism at run time
Date:   Fri, 23 Feb 2018 18:46:11 -0800
Message-Id: <20180224024613.24078-10-mcgrof@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <20180224024613.24078-1-mcgrof@kernel.org>
References: <20180224024613.24078-1-mcgrof@kernel.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

You currently need four different kernel builds to test the firmware
API fully. By adding a proc knob to force disable the fallback mechanism
completely we are able to reduce the amount of kernels you need built
to test the firmware API down to two.
