[PATCH 2.4.34-pre1] gcc4 fix for UP sparc64

From: Mikael Pettersson
Date: Sun Aug 20 2006 - 16:15:35 EST


This patch fixes an invalid-lvalue error when compiling a
2.4.34-pre1 kernel on sparc64 with gcc-4.1.1. The kernel
must be configured with CONFIG_SMP=n for the error to trigger.
(I didn't save the error message, sorry.)

A kernel compiled with gcc-4.1.1 boots fine on my Ultra5
and can rebuild itself, and generally seems no less solid
than the 2.4.33 I compiled with gcc-3.4.6.
