Subject: [PATCH] [powerpc] change get_property to return void *
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2006 20:28:18 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1151576898.883498.737885160345.qpush@pokey> (raw)
Change the get_property() function to return a void *. This allows us
to later remove the cast done in the majority of callers.
Built for pseries, iseries, pmac32, cell, cbesim, g5, systemsim, maple,
and mpc* defconfigs
