but it's been declared static in init/do_mounts.c since March 2002.
gcc-4.0.0-0.32 from FC4-test1 errors out due to the static/non-static
mismatch. Time to kill it from include/linux/fs.h.

Compiling 2.4.30-pre3 for x86_64 with FC4-test1 gcc-4.0.0-0.32 fails
because include/asm-x86_64/processor.h declares init_tss[NR_CPUS] as a
sized array before struct tss_struct has been defined. Simple fix
moves this declaration to after the definition of tss_struct.

unnecessary. megaraid is about the only driver in the tree wi
sysfs. That would be a
welcome addition. A RAID device transport, exposing data common to
logical drives (RAID level, stripe size, health, cache mode, ...).
Very good start though.
Thanks,

t;edd=of" or "edd=sk", ZF=1. But with "edd=bar",
ZF=0, which you say works too. So that's not it...
CF is taken care of around the int13 calls already, so that's not
it...

be nice if the functions could all get
reordered such that inlining works properly, and the need for function
declarations in megaraid2.h would disappear completely.
