Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Change wait_on_bit*() to take an unsigned long*, not a void*
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2015 21:19:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1430453997-32459-3-git-send-email-palmer@dabbelt.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1430453997-32459-1-git-send-email-palmer@dabbelt.com>

The implementations of wait_on_bit*() will only work with long-aligned
memory on systems that don't support misaligned loads and stores.
This patch changes the function prototypes to ensure that the compiler
will enforce alignment.

Running

  make defconfig
  make KFLAGS="-Werror"

seems to indicate that, as of c56fb6564dcd ("Fix a misaligned load
inside ptrace_attach()"), there are now no users of non-long-aligned
calls to wait_on_bit*().  I additionally tried a few "make randconfig"
attempts, none of which failed to compile for this reason.
