kernel 5.4 exFAT backport patch missing CONFIG rename

mr-russ commented 3 years ago

Using the 5.4 branch for the kernel from Repo.

The patch file bb-kernel/patches/backports/exfat/0001-backports-exfat-from-linux.git.patch renames most instances of CONFIG_EXFAT_FS to CONFIG_STAGING_EXFAT_FS, however it missing one, and even with the variables set it does not appear in /proc/filesystems when built. It does appear in /proc/config.gz so I know that it's configured to be included.

After applying the folliwng change to the output

After building with that change, the filesystem is available in /proc/filesystems
