Subject: [PATCH] include/linux/types.h: avoid duplicate definition of atomic64_t when 64BIT && GENERIC_ATOMIC64
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2014 11:32:59 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <53FB572B.20401@bluespec.com> (raw)

If CONFIG_64BIT and CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 are both y, atomic64_t is
defined in both include/linux/types.h and include/asm-generic/atomic64.h.
Allow the definition in include/asm-generic/atomic64.h to prevail, since
that definition is consistent with the rest of CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64.

Signed-off-by: Darius Rad <darius@bluespec.com>

---
It does not appear that this is relevant to architectures that are in the
kernel tree (i.e., no architectures use GENERIC_ATOMIC64 on 64-bit).  It
is relevant, however, to certain combinations of options for the RISC-V
architecture currently in development.

Patch generated against 3.17-rc1.
