Thank you. The weird thing is I already applied this hunk to the patch, an autobuilder found it, it is right in my personal tree.. Unclear where it got dropped? Are we missing anything else in that series? Stephen? Jason ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.

A cleanup patch changed the prototype of the regular tpm_bios_log_setup function, but not that of the stub that is used when the TPM is disabled, causing a harmless build warning: drivers/char/tpm/tpm-chip.c: In function 'tpm1_chip_register': drivers/char/tpm/tpm-chip.c:287:38: error: passing argument 1 of 'tpm_bios_log_setup' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers] chip->bios_dir = tpm_bios_log_setup(dev_name(&chip->dev)); In file included from ../drivers/char/tpm/tpm-chip.c:30:0: ../drivers/char/tpm/tpm_eventlog.h:83:31: note: expected 'char *' but argument is of type 'const char *' static inline struct dentry **tpm_bios_log_setup(char *name) This changes the stub function to match the normal prototype, avoiding that warning.
