[PATCH 4.4 06/37] kaiser: fix build and FIXME in alloc_ldt_struct()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>


Include linux/kaiser.h instead of asm/kaiser.h to build ldt.c without
CONFIG_KAISER.  kaiser_add_mapping() does already return an error code,
so fix the FIXME.
