[PATCH 24/25] Staging: workaround build system bug

From: Greg KH
Date: Mon Oct 13 2008 - 17:41:45 EST


From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxx>

This is needed as CONFIG_STAGING is set to y, yet there is no code in
drivers/staging/ to build, so the build-in.o doesn't get created
properly. Create a "dummy" module in drivers/staging called staging.c
to work around this bug.
