Subject: [PATCH] Stringify support commas
Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2008 14:32:56 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080420183256.GA11350@Krystal> (raw)

#define MYDEF a, b, c

__stringify(MYDEF) should be replaced by "a, b, c", but compilation fails
because the __stringify macro expects only one argument. Fix it by using
variable macro arguments in __stringify and __stringify_1.

Needed in my current NMI safe iret paravirt support work so I can expand
a macro containing assembly code into a string.
