Hi all,

After merging the final tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
allyesconfig) failed like this:

drivers/staging/silicom/bypasslib/built-in.o: In function `.is_bypass':
(.text+0x3254): multiple definition of `.is_bypass'
drivers/staging/silicom/bpctl_mod.o:(.text+0x1d938): first defined here
drivers/staging/silicom/bypasslib/built-in.o: In function `is_bypass':
(.opd+0x480): multiple definition of `is_bypass'
drivers/staging/silicom/bpctl_mod.o:(.opd+0x15f0): first defined here

Caused by commit 7040e556c90a ("staging: add Silicom Bypass driver").

I added this patch to disable the driver:
