I have versioned symbols for modules enabled (if that makes any
difference).
When I changed time.c the following files were recompiled:
floppy.c
misc.c
psaux.c scsi/hosts.c (and many more)
net/netsyms.c
kernel/ksyms.c
fs/binfmt_elf.c (plus a.out and script)
ext2/super.c
fat/inode.c
...
proc/procfs_syms
isofs/inode.c
hpfs/hpfs_fs.c
Is there something to be done? IMHO this makes modules rather useless
to speed development...
