Are you sure about this part? Shifting something left by sizeof(something) seems very strange. It'll give different results on 64-bit machines for the same hardware. Are you sure it wasn't supposed to be an addition?
If this was indeed intended then can you please explain why?
If it was supposed to be an addition, wouldn't this be more clearly expressed by defining a suitable structure and using sizeof(that structure) to work out the address range? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
