It would be probably better to just not disable -mregparms. I don't think the compiler forces this. And e.g. on x86-64 regparms & -pg work just fine, why should it not on i386? > so this patch adds back fastcall annotations.

You should rename it then to "asmcall" or something. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
