Subject: checkpatch false positive
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 11:00:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1268823629.1999.9.camel@localhost> (raw)

I'm getting this error from checkpatch which is a false positive AFAICT.
I don't see any other way to code this macro so maybe this rule
shouldn't apply?.

	ERROR: space prohibited before open square bracket '['
	#24: FILE: drivers/staging/wlan-ng/p80211wext.c:1685:
	+#define IW_IOCTL(x) [(x)-SIOCSIWCOMMIT]

regards
Richard
