In the following files (and their modules) we have the following in -current.

#else
[blah]
#endif

is this worth maintaining?

are the maintainers for mpt and aic supporting 4.x with the same sources somewhere?


At one point, the code was shared between different OS versions for both
of the these drivers. Adding locking hurt that a bit, and I mostly consider 4.x compat to be an obstacle at this point. I don't care if
this gets broken by your kthread/kproc changes.
