I had forgotten about that. This comment predates git, so I'm unaware of what the context is, could you elaborate on it? I'm aware this won't work for s390, but as that has NO_IOMEM in the first place it's a non-issue. I assume this was added at a time before ARM selected GENERIC_HARDIRQS, but this is no longer the case. The odd ones out that do support iomem are m68k and sparc32, both of which are being converted. Given that and that s390 remains special cased for now, what exactly is the concern? There is a reasonable expectation that we will start to see irq_data references in drivers, so it's not entirely obvious that the assertion made by the comment will remain true (all of the stragglers have work in progress patches already, as far as I'm aware). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
