I've been working turning the PTP stuff into syscalls, but here is a
little issue I ran into. The PTP clock layer wants to call the PPS
code via pps_register_source(), but the PPS can be compiled as a
module. Since the PTP layer is now offering syscalls, it must always
be present in the kernel. So I need to make sure that the PPS is
either absent entirely or staticly linked in.

How can I do this?

Thanks,

Richard
