[ARM] 2892/1: remove gcc workaround for direct access to absolute memory addresses Patch from Nicolas Pitre It used to make a difference in the gcc-2.95 era. However these days modern gcc apparently got better at not being influenced by such constructs (which is good in general) and therefore such workaround is of no real advantage anymore. The good news is that gcc (from version 4.1.0) is now fixed with regards to the defficiency this workaround was trying to address. For those interested the patch can easily be backported to older gcc versions and can be found here: http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gcc/gcc/config/arm/arm.c.diff?r1=1.476&r2=1.478 and also here: http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gcc/gcc/gcc/config/arm/arm.c.diff?r1=text&tr1=1.476&r2=text&tr2=1.478&diff_format=u Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
