From dcf975d58565880a134afb13bde511d1b873ce79 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: H Hartley Sweeten Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:31:44 -0700 Subject: mm/page-writeback.c: dirty limit type should be unsigned long get_dirty_limits() calls clip_bdi_dirty_limit() and task_dirty_limit() with variable pbdi_dirty as one of the arguments. This variable is an unsigned long * but both functions expect it to be a long *. This causes the following sparse warnings: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different signedness) expected long *pbdi_dirty got unsigned long *pbdi_dirty warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different signedness) expected long *pdirty got unsigned long *pbdi_dirty Fix the warnings by changing the long * to unsigned long * in both functions.
