[PATCH] STAGING: Comedi: Build only on arches providingPAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE

[Ralf Baechle]

On architectures that don't define PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE, the Comedi driver turns
into tragedy:

  CC [M]  drivers/staging/comedi/drivers.o
drivers/staging/comedi/drivers.c: In function âcomedi_buf_allocâ:
drivers/staging/comedi/drivers.c:505:41: error: âPAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHEâ undeclared (first use in this function)
drivers/staging/comedi/drivers.c:505:41: note: each undeclared identifier is rep orted only once for each function it appears in
make[3]: *** [drivers/staging/comedi/drivers.o] Error 1

Restrict the driver to only those architectures that define PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE.

PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE is a kludge - some system architectures such as SGI IP27
are even uable to offer uncached operation - at least in the way an unwitting
driver might assume.  I haven't looked in details how the driver is using
the area vmaped with PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE but maybe doing it XFS-style using
cached memory and the flush_kernel_vmap_range / invalidate_kernel_vmap_range
APIs in conjunction with the DMA API is a practical alternative.
