[PATCH] ata: replace macro with static inline in libata.h

From: Harvey Harrison
Date: Mon Feb 18 2008 - 11:08:05 EST


Avoid ~70 sparse warnings like:
drivers/ata/pata_ali.c:176:14: warning: symbol '__x' shadows an earlier one
drivers/ata/pata_ali.c:176:14: originally declared here

Due to nesting min_t macro inside max_t macro which both use a __x
identifier internally.

Andrew, here is a patch that drastically reduces the number of sparse
warnings in libata. Alan Cox has suggested a clamp_t macro be added
to kernel.h instead to avoid this issue. I don't believe Jeff Garzik
has given an opinion yet (other than not applying it when originally
sent this was 5/11 of the libata sparse warnings)
