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

 



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

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

From: Chen Gang <gang.chen@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4dcc1cf7316a26e112f5c9fcca531ff98ef44700 upstream.

For atomic_cmpxchg(), the type of 'oldval' need be 'int' to match the
type of "*ptr" (used by 'ldrex' instruction) and 'old' (used by 'teq'
instruction).
