Subject: [PATCH 3/4] initramfs: mark collect buffers as __user pointers
Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2010 12:37:43 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1282189064-3904-4-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1282189064-3904-1-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com>

collected, vcollected, collect are used for syscall routines so it would be
better to be __user pointers. We can add __user/__force markup on every calls
but marking them as user pointers requires less change.

Impact: remove sparse warnings, no functional change
