Content-Disposition: inline; filename=003-memcpy-warning.diff Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Archive: List-Post: To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-s390@vger.kernel.org Cc: Bastian Blank , Heiko Carstens , Martin Schwidefsky List-ID: From: Heiko Carstens Compile smp.o with -Wno-nonnull so gcc stops warning about memcpy being used with a null parameter. Also remove the workaround code and use a char * cast instead of a void * cast to do computations.
