Randy,
That fix looks like the best to me. I did notice also that proc_bt_rfcomm and
proc_bt_hci have similar #ifdef wrappers. I think that's okay since they aren't
EXPORT_SYMBOL-ed, and they're used in fewer places.
FYI, IPX won't compile without CONFIG_PROC_FS at this time. The merged patch
depended on a patch that I sent to Linus and posted to linux-kernel alongside
the IPX patch. I also sent them to linux-net (accidentally, instead of netdev).
I may need to resend that patch. In the mean time, if you actually need to use
IPX without procfs, you can grab the patch (and rationale) here:
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0310.1/0452.html
FYI #2, from elsewhere in the department of fixing exotic breakage, I'm working
on patches that will allow one to compile a linux kernel under Unix and other
similar systems. I've gotten allnoconfig for i386 to build from Solaris 2.7 on
sun4u, but a number of the userspace tools that support the build process of
optional components need a bit more help.
