gargh.  We should put a tax on #defines to discourage their consumption.


How about we do this:

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>

- the LEAP_YEAR macro is buggy - it references its arg multiple times. 
  Fix this by turning it into a C function.

- give it a more approriate name

- Move it to rtc.h so that other .c files can use it, instead of copying it.

and then we modify your patch thusly:


From: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>

Use is_leap_year()
