From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 05a4ab823983d9136a460b7b5e0d49ee709a6f86 ] With the following piece of code, the following compilation warning is encountered: if (_IOC_DIR(ioc) != _IOC_NONE) { int verify = _IOC_DIR(ioc) & _IOC_READ ? VERIFY_WRITE : VERIFY_READ; if (!access_ok(verify, ioarg, _IOC_SIZE(ioc))) { drivers/platform/test/dev.c: In function 'my_ioctl': drivers/platform/test/dev.c:219:7: warning: unused variable 'verify' [-Wunused-variable] int verify = _IOC_DIR(ioc) & _IOC_READ ? VERIFY_WRITE : VERIFY_READ; This patch fixes it by referencing 'type' in the macro allthough doing nothing with it.
