Subject: [PATCH] mutex subsystem, add typecheck_fn(type, function)
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=711a660dc2064013a2b0167ee67389707fc9cac3;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

[PATCH] mutex subsystem, add typecheck_fn(type, function)

add typecheck_fn(type, function) to do type-checking of function
pointers.

Modified-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

(made it typeof() based, instead of typedef based.)
