Re: shouldn't "irq" be module_param_array instead of module_paramin scsi/gdth.c ?

This little warning made me take a closer look : drivers/scsi/gdth.c:645: warning: return from incompatible pointer type

And line 645 looks like this :

module_param(irq, int, 0);

looking a bit up in the file I find :

/* IRQ list for GDT3000/3020 EISA controllers */
static int irq[MAXHA] __initdata =
{0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,
0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff,0xff};

That certainly looks like an array to me, so I'm wondering if something like this patch would be correct? I'm not familliar enough with module_param* to be completely confident, but this silences the warning.

Yep, same as:
