checkpatch says:
ERROR: #define of 'ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_ON_KUNMAP' is wrong - use Kconfig variables or standard guards instead
#69: FILE: arch/parisc/include/asm/cacheflush.h:103:
+#define ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_ON_KUNMAP
which is fair enough, I guess. More conventional would be
arch/parisc/include/asm/cacheflush.h:
static inline void kunmap_flush_on_unmap(void *addr)
{
...
}
#define kunmap_flush_on_unmap kunmap_flush_on_unmap
include/linux/highmem.h:
#ifndef kunmap_flush_on_unmap
static inline void kunmap_flush_on_unmap(void *addr)
{
}
#define kunmap_flush_on_unmap kunmap_flush_on_unmap
#endif
static inline void kunmap_atomic_high(void *addr)
{
/* Mostly nothing to do in the CONFIG_HIGHMEM=n case as kunmap_atomic()
* handles re-enabling faults + preemption */
kunmap_flush_on_unmap(addr);
}
but I don't really think it's worth bothering changing it.
(Ditto patch 3/15)
