Interesting stuff.  You guys are doing static analysis on the .o
files?  I'm looking at the first line.

ticks 25 What does the ticks count mean?

Infinite Loop:142  Ok.  I see this on drivers/atm/zatm.c line 142.
It's a real infinite loop (if you're zatm hardware is broken).

Dynamic array:393  What's this?  I don't see any dynamic arrays in
this driver.

regards,
dan carpenter
