Hi Jason,
The current linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) gives this warning:
drivers/char/tty_io.c: In function 'tty_find_polling_driver':
drivers/char/tty_io.c:307: warning: passing argument 2 of 'strict_strtoul' makes integer from pointer without a cast
drivers/char/tty_io.c:307: warning: passing argument 3 of 'strict_strtoul' makes pointer from integer without a cast
Which points to an actual bug introduced by commit
8a89d640448c261c248594511c72db0569725058 ("kgdboc,tty: Fix tty polling
search to use name correctly") from the kgdb tree.
simple_strtol() and strict_strtoul() take different parameters and have
different return values.
Warnings are important! Please take a more care.
I will revert that commit from linux-next for today.
