Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2007 15:27:40 +0100 From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com> To: torvalds@...l.org, akpm@...l.org Cc: dhowells@...hat.com, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] Fix pointer mismatches in proc_sysctl.c Fix pointer mismatches in proc_sysctl.c. The proc_handler() method returns a size_t through an arg pointer, but is given a pointer to a ssize_t to return into.
