The patch titled alsa: fix a const pointer usage warning in the Digigram pcxhr soundcard driver has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was alsa-fix-a-const-pointer-usage-warning-in-the-digigram-pcxhr-soundcard-driver.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: alsa: fix a const pointer usage warning in the Digigram pcxhr soundcard driver From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Fix a const pointer usage warning in the Digigram pcxhr compatible soundcard driver. A const pointer is being passed to copy_from_user() to load the firmware into. This is okay in this case because the function has allocated the firmware struct itself, but the const qualifier is part of the firmware struct - so the patch casts the const away. This was introduced by patch 0aa4937648b91e9e6d3879b2cbeaa5f0c9863ac0.
