Re: [PATCHv2 4/9] mISDN: fix sparse warning

From: Hannes Eder
Date: Thu Dec 11 2008 - 15:05:55 EST


Impact: un-export symbol 'plx_lock'

Fix this warning:

drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN/hfcmulti.c:176:1: warning: symbol 'plx_lock' shadows an earlier one
drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN/hfcmulti.c:175:19: originally declared here
