Hello Steve, I thought I had put those through the checkpatch.pl script before sending them upstream. I guess I was mistaken.

This seems to be a false positive where it incorrectly thinks that the function pointer is not part of the declarations. if I add a blank line between the 2 lines above, it no longer shows that warning. > > > WARNING: Prefer kcalloc over kzalloc with multiply > #358: FILE: fs/cifs/sess.c:1282: > + ntlmsspblob = kzalloc(5*sizeof(struct _AUTHENTICATE_MESSAGE), > > total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 565 lines checked > > 0005-cifs-Separate-rawntlmssp-auth-from-CIFS_SessSetup.patch has style > problems, please review. This was simply copied from the original code.
