Subject: [patch 3/3] spinlock fix #3: type-checking spinlock primitives, x86
Date: Thu, 20 Jan 2005 13:09:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050120120905.GA3493@elte.hu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20050120115947.GA31305@elte.hu>


this patch would have caught the bug in -BK-curr (that patch #1 fixes),
via a compiler warning. Test-built/booted on x86.
