If gcc is insisting that prototypes for inlines no longer work, we have a lot of code churn on our hands ;-( Grumble.


I've counted at about 30 files with such problems in a full i386 2.6.7-mm7 compile.

I've already sent patches for some of them (e.g. the dmascc.c one), and they are usually pretty straightforward.

This is not a problem with the kernel.

All these files have been functioning just fine for years, with properly prototyped static inline functions.

Though there is a the claim that '#define inline always_inline' is leading to all this breakage.
