From 5cbded585d129d0226cb48ac4202b253c781be26 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert P. J. Day Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 00:35:56 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls Run this: #!/bin/sh for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do echo "De-casting $f..." perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f done And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers to non-pointers. And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.
