Hi All,
The latest mainline kernel branch fails to build for "arm allmodconfig"
with the error:
ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/watchdog/gxp-wdt.o
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:134: modules-only.symvers] Error 1
The file is missing MODULE_LICENSE().

Regards
Sudip

I sent a patch fixing the problem a minute ago.

Thank you for correcting this. I had the compiler set to W=1, is there another option I should be using to catch errors like this?

arm:allmodconfig reproduces the problem. I had seen it as well,
which is why I sent a fix. The key is to enable -Werror
(CONFIG_WERROR=y), not W=1.
