[PATCH V2 3/4] x86/kvm: Resolve shadow warnings in macro expansion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Resolve shadow warnings that appear in W=2 builds. Instead of
using ret to hold the return pointer, save the length in a new
variable saved_len and compute the pointer on exit. This also
resolves a very technical error, in that ret was declared as
a const char *, when it really was a char * const, which
theoretically could have allowed the compiler to do something
wrong.

Changes in V2:
- Instead of renaming all inner variables, just delete the
  ret variable in favor of the new saved_len variable.
