    Staging: add TAINT_CRAP for all drivers/staging code · 061b1bd3
    Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
    We need to add a flag for all code that is in the drivers/staging/
    directory to prevent all other kernel developers from worrying about
    issues here, and to notify users that the drivers might not be as good
    as they are normally used to.
    
    Based on code from Andreas Gruenbacher and Jeff Mahoney to provide a
    TAINT flag for the support level of a kernel module in the Novell
    enterprise kernel release.
    
    This is the kernel portion of this feature, the ability for the flag to
    be set needs to be done in the build process and will happen in a
    follow-up patch.
