Cover letter [KJ] [PATCH][RESUBMIT][0/21] compile warning cleanup
Hello all,
After taking into consideration all of the fine feedback I received from my first ever attempt at submitting a series of patches, I am now applying this feedback and am submitting patches that will hopefully pass the test and be applied.
I am resubmitting the entire series, even those that did not receive any feedback at all and are unchanged, since I received no notification that they were to be applied.
I have created these patches against the linux-2.6.11-rc3-mm2 tree since, while I am aware of the 2.6.11-rc4 patch, there is no corresponding patch for the -mm tree. Is this the right way to go? If not, please advise and I'll resubmit yet again.
Please note my solution (patch #17 in this series) to the unused table structures in some poorly written drivers that always assume that they will be compiled as modules. I changed include/linux/modules.h to create an alias to remove the warning. This works for all the compilation. The advantages to this patch are 1:, that it removes the warnings, and 2:, the source files themselves do not have to be changed because of this problem. The disadvantages are 1:, it removes the warning so a module writer will not be apprised of the fact that there is a minor problem, and 2, it pollutes the global name space. The patch also keeps the same status as before with the warning, that is, it still compiles the table into the code, so the kernel will drag around this unused data.
