[PATCH] fix sparse problems with ARRAY_SIZE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



ARRAY_SIZE seems to create sparse warnings when used on global variables. The attached patch fixes this by using a ARRAY_SIZE macro that does not use __must_be_array(arr) for sparse.
