Im using gcc 3.2 for ppc64 compiles, I guess earlier compilers dont emit this warning.
Its not Steve's fault, for example mm/vmscan.c:shrink_caches gets a warning because of
const int nr_pages: ... to_reclaim = max(to_reclaim, nr_pages);
ie:
to_reclaim = ({ const typeof(to_reclaim) _x = (to_reclaim); const typeof(nr_pages) _y = (nr_pages); (void) (&_x == &_y); _x > _y ? _x : _y; });
Which ends up as const const int _y = (nr_pages);
