Hi Ryan,
Welcome to Linux development.
You are working on an old version of the staging tree. Please rebase to
the latest version of staging-next. drivers/android/ is not anymore here.
Aside from the above, what style issue were you trying to fix? Everything
looks fine in the line that you changed,
Why did you decide to add the "const" qualifier to vmfile_fops? Do you
know that since then the fields of vmfile_fops are not anymore assignable?
What should we do with an empty list of file operations?
Furthermore, why did you drop the "static" memory qualifier? Do you know
why it was (I suppose correctly) "static"?
Please don't ever forget to build your code before submitting patches.
Thanks,
Fabio M. De Francesco
