From c215a16a4ad620b612b51495cbb99dbbb59bb585 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2005 03:36:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] bogus BUILD_BUG_ON() in bpa_iommu BUILD_BUG_ON(1) is asking for trouble (and getting it) when used in that manner - dead code elimination happens after we parse it and invalid type is invalid type, dead code or not. It might be version-dependent, but at least 4.0.1 refuses to accept that.
