Send two separate patches. You can't "fix" sparse warnings. You can only "fix" bugs. The rest is add annotation, doing cleanups or possibly silencing warnings. > - didn't touch "was not declared.

Are you positive? The changelog should have explained your thinking here. Same for all the iomem changes. regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@linuxdriverproject.org http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
