Hello Maintainers:
compiling with EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W:
make V=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W ARCH=arm s3c2410_defconfig
make V=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W ARCH=arm menuconfig
set 'arm-linux-gnu-' for cross chain prefix
make V=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W ARCH=arm
it will report:
kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c:1065:19: warning: ?now? may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
it seems it is really a bug.
can any member help to fix it ?
or provide additional suggestion ?
(it seems only "unsigned long long now = 0" is not enough).
:-)

oh, sorry, it seems better to let ARM folks know about it.

Yeah it's missing a call to cpu_timer_sample_group() before
clear_dead_task(). Andrew Morton reported the warning and I have a
pending patch to fix that. I'm just checking a few other things before
sending it. These clear_dead_task() calls seem to also conflict with
cleanup_timers(). I'm fixing that too.
Thanks for your report!
