Subject: Bug in IA64 bootsector code ?

hello,

I was just browsing the kernel sources and discovered

something strange:

in file linux/arch/ia64/boot/bootloader.c, line 104:

it says "volative" but i guess "volatile" was meant,
I couldn't find that keyword in my gcc documentation
either.

#ifdef CONFIG_ITANIUM_ASTEP_SPECIFIC
 asm volative ("nop 0;; nop 0;; nop 0;;");
#endif /* CONFIG_ITANIUM_ASTEP_SPECIFIC */

Please tell me if this is a bug or just forget this mail when I err.

My kernel version is 2.4.0 patched as follows:

1. downloaded and unpacked linux-2.4.0-test11.tar.gz to /usr/src/linux
2. patched with patch-2.4.0-test12.gz (zcat patch-2.4.0-test12.gz | patch -p1)
3. patched with patch-2.4.0-prerelease.gz (zcat patch-2.4.0-prerelease.gz | patch -p1)
4. patched with prerelease-to-final.gz (zcat prerelease-to-final.gz | patch -p1)
5. patched with linux-2.4.0-reiserfs-3.6.25-patch.gz (zcat linux-2.4.0-reiserfs-3.6.25-patch.gz | patch -p1)

Kernel was downloaded from http://www.kernel.org, patches were downloaded from http://www.kernel.org,
ReiserFS patch was downloaded from ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiserfs-for-2.4/
