2007-06-01Improve compatibility handlingMauro Carvalho Chehab
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> V4L/DVB tree keeps backward compatibility with vanilla 2.6.x kernels. However, if some API changes happens on 2.6.x.y, this wouldn't be handled. This patch improves the compatibility capabilities of the tree by allowing customized scripts to be added on make_config_compat.pl. So, when generating config-compat.h, some compat checks can be done against the kernel tree. The practical effect is allowing compilation on 2.6.17.x trees, used by several distros, where some changes on netdevice.h affects dvb-net, stopping its compilation.
