The codes of powerpc.git(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/galak/powerpc.git)
are different with net.git.
The following are the codes from powerpc.git
static bool mei_init(struct mei *me, const uuid_le *guid,
unsigned char req_protocol_version, bool verbose)
{
int result;
struct mei_client *cl;
struct mei_connect_client_data data;
mei_deinit(me);
me->verbose = verbose;
me->fd = open("/dev/mei", O_RDWR);
if (me->fd == -1) {
mei_err(me, "Cannot establish a handle to the Intel
MEI driver\n");
goto err;
}
The mei_deinit is invoked before open, so the gcc reports one warning.
