Greetings James and Other Maintainers of the Parisc Architecture, I am wondering about two fix mes in init.c and how to fix them for being const declared into actual variables. ... /* FIXME: This is 'const' in order to trick the compiler into not treating it as DP-relative data. */ extern void * const linux_gateway_page;
The FIXME: is misleading. It should maybe better read "HINT:" or something like that. Trivially it's basically just casting the symbol so that the compiler will produce the correct code later on. There is nothing you could try to "fix".
