From: Ricardo Nabinger Sanchez <[email protected]>
The attached patch:
o Fixes kernel/power/disk.c string declared as 'char *p = "...";' to be
declared as 'char p[] = "...";', as pointed by Jeff Garzik.
o Replaces:
i++:
if (i > 3) i = 0;
By:
i = (i + 1) % (sizeof(p) - 1);
Which is if-less, and the adjust value is evaluated by the compiler in
compile-time in case the string related to this loop is modified.
