The patch titled Signdness issue in drivers/scsi/osst.c has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is signedness-issue-in-drivers-scsi-osstc.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Signdness issue in drivers/scsi/osst.c From: Eric Sesterhenn <snakebyte@xxxxxx> another signdness warning from gcc 4.1 drivers/scsi/osst.c:5154: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false The problem is that blk is defined as unsigned, but all usages of it are normal int cases. osst_get_frame_position() and osst_get_sector() return ints and can return negative values. If blk stays an unsigned int, the error check is useless.
