[PATCH] cyclone.c: silly use of volatile, __iomem fixes

From: Al Viro
Date: Thu Jul 26 2007 - 12:38:50 EST



u32* volatile cyclone_timer means volatile auto pointer to u32,
which is clearly not what had been intended (we never even take
the address of that variable, let alone pass it to something that
could change it behind our back). u32 volatile * is what the
authors apparently wanted to say, but in reality we don't need that
qualifier there at all - it's (properly) only passed to iomem helpers
which takes care of that stuff just fine.
