From: David Howells <[email protected]>
Work around a possible bug in the FRV compiler.
What appears to be happening is that gcc resolves the __builtin_constant_p()
in kmalloc() to true, but then fails to reduce the therefore constant
conditions in the if-statements it guards to constant results.
When compiling with -O2 or -Os, one single spurious error crops up in
cpuup_callback() in mm/slab.c. This can be avoided by making the memsize
variable const.
