Anyway, I'll drop it, please review and fix. I assume that warning was occurring for you as well - please spend more time over these things. Especially when working on IDE, where bugs are slow to show themselves and have particularly bad consequences. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
