Subject: [PATCH 3/5 -v2] Remove __pa() use in hvc_lguest
Date: Thu, 09 Aug 2007 00:36:29 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070809044125.276249230@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070809043626.830486783@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0003-Remove-__pa-use-in-hvc_lguest.txt --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1131 bytes --]

The hvc_lguest uses __pa in the const initialization.
In some architectures, __pa() is not constant so this fails in compiles.
