From 986a80d5c154808cc78170584670324a22fd8219 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesper Juhl Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2005 15:14:00 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] avoid signed vs unsigned comparison in efi_range_is_wc() warning when building with gcc -W : include/linux/efi.h: In function `efi_range_is_wc': include/linux/efi.h:320: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned It looks to me like a significantly large 'len' passed in could cause the loop to never end. Isn't it safer to make 'i' an unsigned long as well?
