Subject: [PATCH] Check the argument of kunmap on architectures without highmem
Date: Thu, 14 May 2009 10:11:44 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090514161144.GT15360@parisc-linux.org> (raw)


If you're using a non-highmem architecture, passing an argument
with the wrong type to kunmap() doesn't give you a warning because the
ifdef doesn't check the type.

Using a static inline function solves the problem nicely.
