Don't expose it. I'm a little dubious about touching all architectures at once. It might be nicer to do a first patch which adds an _empty_ <asm/syscalls.h> on each platform, and includes that from <linux/syscalls.h>. And then follow up with one patch per architecture. Have you compile-tested them all? -- dwmw2 -- 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/
