Subject: Question on ARC's thread_info

Vineet,

I'm working on a patch series which touches sturct thread_info.
ARC's thread_info has the following comment:
 * - if the contents of this structure are changed, the assembly constants
 *   must also be changed

Is this still true? Unless I'm reading the code wrong that case should be
handled automatically by the asm-offsets mechanism.
So no manual fixup of magic constants should be needed.

Thanks,
//richard
