The patch titled Subject: drivers/memstick/host/r592.c: avoid gcc-6 warning has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was memstick-r592-avoid-gcc-6-warning.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Subject: drivers/memstick/host/r592.c: avoid gcc-6 warning The r592 driver relies on behavior of the DMA mapping API that is normally observed but not guaranteed by the API. Instead it uses a runtime check to fail transfers if the API ever behaves When CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH is not set, one of the checks turns into a comparison of a variable with itself, which gcc-6.0 now warns about: drivers/memstick/host/r592.c: In function 'r592_transfer_fifo_dma': drivers/memstick/host/r592.c:302:31: error: self-comparison always evaluates to false [-Werror=tautological-compare] (sg_dma_len(&dev->req->sg) < dev->req->sg.length)) { ^ The check itself is not a problem, so this patch just rephrases the condition in a way that gcc does not consider an indication of a mistake. We already know that dev->req->sg.length was initially R592_LFIFO_SIZE, so we can compare it to that constant again.
