[PATCH] m68k: Avoid VLA use in mangle_kernel_stack()
From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Mon Jan 07 2019 - 04:29:56 EST
With gcc 7.3.0:
arch/m68k/kernel/signal.c: In function âmangle_kernel_stackâ:
arch/m68k/kernel/signal.c:654:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable length array âbufâ [-Wvla]
unsigned long buf[fsize / 2]; /* yes, twice as much */
^~~~~~~~
Replace the variable size by the upper limit, which is 168 bytes.
