PATCH 1/1 (revised) fix net/irda warnings for 2.4.21-pre3

Patch download location:
http://www.chainsaw.cistron.nl/compile-fixes-irda.patch.gz

The patch I announced several hours ago had issues. I have replaced the file on the website with a correct version. If anyone had already downloaded the fix, please do so again.
This fixes the numerous "Concatenation of string literals with __FUNCTION__ is depricated" errors in net/irda. This should apply cleanly to both a 2.4.21-pre3 and a 2.4.21-pre3-ac3 tree.

GCC 3+ users, please inform me if this patch works for you, so it can be submitted.

Thanks,
Tony Vroon.

Did you try to compile all the files your patch changes?

The following things are obvious typos:

Adrian,

You're right, I seem to have missed quite a lot, I have double-checked things and updated the patch-file on the website.

P.S. This one doesn't give any warnings in a compile test.

Really???

2.95 still gives me several valid warnings like e.g.:

<-- snip -->

...
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/home/bunk/linux/kernel-2.4/linux-2.4.20-ac/include -Wall -Ws trict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common
-pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=k6 -nostdinc -iwithprefix include
-DKBUILD_BASENAME=ircomm_tty_attach -c -o ircomm_tty_attach.o ircomm_tty_attach.c ircomm_tty_attach.c: In function `ircomm_tty_disconnect_indication':
ircomm_tty_attach.c:360: warning: too few arguments for format
...

<-- snip -->

In this case the bug in your patch is pretty obvious:

- IRDA_DEBUG(2, __FUNCTION__ "()\n");
+ IRDA_DEBUG(2, "%s()\n");
