[PATCH v2] linux/types.h: Restore __bitwise__ definition

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

 



From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx>

This reverts part of commit c724c866bb70cb8c607081a26823a1f0ebde4387.

Jiri Slaby reported that c724c866bb70 ("linux/types.h: remove unnecessary
__bitwise__") broke userspace, including open-iscsi, because it uses
__bitwise__.

Restore the __bitwise__ definition.
