Hi all,

I do not know if that is worth the effort, but...

Silencing warning: passing argument 1 of 'get_new_cred' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

The proposed change is similar to that used in put_cred() function (few lines lower)

The patch is against 2.6.30-rc1, but should apply to 2.6.29(.1) too.
