I think it'd be better if we kept the WARN_ON_ONCE(size == 0) in there, because it is exposing some coding warts. But we should turn it off for 2.6.22 and make it conditional on CONFIG_DEVEL_KERNEL (or whatever it will be called) later. The BADPTR thing is a little worrying because it will make previously-working-by-luck code go oops. I guess we can live with that. So we end up with the BADPTR code enabled even in production kernels, in which case your ((unsigned long)x <= 16) trick is worth doing. - 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/
