Re: [PATCH v11 13/14] HP BIOSCFG driver - Makefile

[Jorge Lopez]

Hi

A quick note letting you know that the failures are reported when
trying to compile HP-BIOSCFG driver and it is including compile
sources from a DELL driver.   No DELL portions of driver are and will
be included in HP-BIOSCFG driver.

ld: drivers/platform/x86/hp/hp-bioscfg/bioscfg.o: in function
`get_wmiobj_pointer':
>> bioscfg.c:(.text+0x750): multiple definition of `get_wmiobj_pointer'; drivers/platform/x86/dell/dell-wmi-sysman/sysman.o:sysman.c:(.text+0x830): first defined here

Additionally,  functions init_bios_attr_pass_interface() and
exit_bios_attr_pass_interface() were renamed and the new definition
will be included in patch v13  for HP-BIOSCFG driver.

Regards,

Jorge
