Re: [PATCH] powerpc: derive COMMAND_LINE_SIZE from asm-generic

See also commit 2b74b8569. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker paul.gortma...@windriver.com Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann a...@arndb.de Just to clarify why this is good: There is a patch from Remis to kbuild that can automatically create the trivial wrappers, so we can remove arch/powerpc/include/asm/setup.h from the kernel once that patch is applied. I was also planning to submit a series to clean up more powerpc in this way headers where applicable, see http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic.git;a=shortlog;h=powerpc The series needs some forward porting to 2.6.31 as well as testing. If you or someone else wants to help with that, please go ahead! Thanks, Arnd ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev

The series needs some forward porting to 2.6.31 as well as testing. If you or someone else wants to help with that, please go ahead! I'll definitely have a look at what is in there. Paul.
