Subject: [PATCH] efi: Fix the build with user namespaces enabled.
Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2012 17:19:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87sj74f97b.fsf@xmission.com> (raw)
When compiling efivars.c the build fails with:
CC drivers/firmware/efivars.o
drivers/firmware/efivars.c: In function ‘efivarfs_get_inode’:
drivers/firmware/efivars.c:886:31: error: incompatible types when assigning to type ‘kgid_t’ from type ‘int’
make[2]: *** [drivers/firmware/efivars.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/firmware/efivars.o] Error 2
Fix the build error by removing the duplicate initialization of i_uid and
i_gid inode_init_always has already initialized them to 0.
