I'll be removing this #warning from advansys when I get rid of the last bus_to_virt. Which I've already done ... it's just that the resulting driver works on i386, but crashes parisc, so there's clearly a bug. I haven't had time to track it down yet. So NACK this patch. -- Intel are signing my paycheques ... these opinions are still mine "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours. We can't possibly take such a retrograde step." - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
