Subject: [PATCH 2/4] UML - Remove unused variables in the context switcher
Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2007 14:20:49 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071114192049.GA9083@c2.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)
This patch removes a variable which was not used in two functions.
Yet another code cleanup, nothing really significant.
Please note that I could not test this on x86_64. I don't have the
hardware for it.
[ jdike - Bits of tidying around the affected code. Also, it's fine on
x86_64 ]
