Message-ID: <20071026164357.GA5898@pingi.kke.suse.de> Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2007 18:43:57 +0200 From: Karsten Keil <kkeil@...e.de> To: LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: Jeff Garzik <jeff@...zik.org>, akpm@...ux-foundation.org, kkeil@...e.de, isdn4linux@...tserv.isdn4linux.de Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] ISDN/capidrv: address two longstanding warnings * change #warning to a code comment * add comment and special ifdef'd 64-bit code for a situation where we must store a pointer into a CAPI field 'Data', which is fixed by the interface at 32 bits.
