Re:Re: [PATCH v2] media:v4l2-async:add debugfs under CONFIG_DEBUG_FS

[luo.liu.linux]

Hi Sakari,

        Thank you very much for your review and suggestions.


          Yes, I originally intended to wrap everything in a single #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_FS ... #endif block. However, since v4l2_async_init and v4l2_async_exit are mandatory entry points (registered via subsys_initcall and module_exit), 

they must remain present regardless of the configuration. This limits the granularity, forcing me to place the conditional checks inside these two functions.


Kind regards, 

Luo.Liu
