This was badly worded. They're "suboptimal" for use by i386 (ie. they clash with the i386 declaration and they'd need lots of casts to convert the code). Of course, treating them as 2 32-bit values on x86-64 *is* suboptimal, and this patch helps that, but that wasn't what I was talking about. > They seem to work just fine. Yep. But my first attempt was to simply #include <asm-x86_64/desc_defs.h> from asm-i386, and that doesn't work fine 8( Thanks, Rusty. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
