Reducing kernel compilation time

Okay, let's get the numbers.

I followed Sven and Stephen's advice so I:

- Used "make localmodconfig" to generate the ".config" file
- Appended "CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2" to "make-kpkg"
- Added CONFIG_MATOM=y (just in case...)
- Removed the aforementioned "CONFIG_LGUEST_GUEST", "CONFIG_LGUEST" and
"CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS" options from the ".config" file

After applying the patch:

* https://github.com/malaterre/PublicRep/tree/master/toshiba

I can now load toshiba_acpi nicely:

[43475.857947] toshiba_acpi: Toshiba Laptop ACPI Extras version 0.20
[43475.858145] input: Toshiba input device as /devices/virtual/input/input16
[43475.878808] Registered led device: toshiba::illumination

toshiba_acpi on L670-1JN

According to :

http://memebeam.org/toys/ToshibaAcpiDriver

$ modprobe toshiba_acpi
FATAL: Error inserting toshiba_acpi
(.../kernel/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.ko): No such device

means that I do not have the proper toshiba, in my case, here is what I got:

FATAL: Error inserting toshiba_acpi (/lib/modules/3.0.0-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/toshiba_acpi.ko): No such device

However if one dig a little further

$ sudo acpidump -b -t DSDT -o DSDT.aml
$ iasl -d DSDT.aml
$ grep TOS1900 DSDT.dsl
Name (_HID, EisaId ("TOS1900"))

Yay ! this means I should be able to use toshiba_acpi ! TOS1900 is the Toshiba Value Added Package from windows.
