[PATCH] [4.8-rc7, regression] fault_in_multipages_readable() throws set-but-unused error
From: Dave Chinner
Date: Sun Sep 25 2016 - 19:58:11 EST
From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>
When building XFS with -Werror, it now fails with:
./include/linux/pagemap.h: In function Âfault_in_multipages_readableÂ:
./include/linux/pagemap.h:602:16: error: variable Âc set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]
volatile char c;
^
This is a regression caused by commit e23d415 ("fix
fault_in_multipages_...() on architectures with no-op access_ok()").
Fix it by re-adding the "(void)c" trick taht was previously used to
make the compiler think the variable is used.
