[PATCH] 2.4 ACPI dispatcher/dsmthdat.c warning fix

Hi,

I think this is what the author meant, i.e. we don't need to substitute
obj_desc = new_obj_desc there as it is done later in the file.

This patch doesn't change kernel behaviour, it only eliminates the
warning message.

Please apply to 2.4 kernel tree. Thanks.

Krzysztof,


You're correct, but the 2.4 and 2.6 trees already got this fix when they
updated to ACPICA 20041116 on Monday night.

thanks,
