Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] asm-generic/bug.h: declare struct pt_regs; before function prototype
Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 17:01:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170523160112.3446-2-abbotti@mev.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170523160112.3446-1-abbotti@mev.co.uk>

The declaration of `__warn()` has `struct pt_regs *regs` as one of its
parameters.  This can result in compiler warnings if `struct regs` is
not already declared.  Add an empty declaration of `struct pt_regs` to
avoid the warnings.

v3: Actually, there was no v1 or v2.  I called this v3 to match the
series.
v4: Corrected 'Acked-by:' line in patch description.
