The patch titled ARRAY_SIZE: check for type has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was array_size-check-for-type.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ARRAY_SIZE: check for type From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> We can use a gcc extension to ensure that ARRAY_SIZE() is handed an array, not a pointer. This is especially important when code is changed from a fixed array to a pointer. I assume the Intel compiler doesn't support __builtin_types_compatible_p.
