From: Linus Walleij Date: Wed, 26 May 2010 06:37:57 +0000 (+0100) Subject: ARM: 6144/1: TCM memory bug freeing bug X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea208f646c8fb91c39c852e952fc911e1ad045ab;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git ARM: 6144/1: TCM memory bug freeing bug This fixes a bug in mm/init.c when freeing the TCM compile memory, this was being referred to as a char * which is incorrect: this will dereference the pointer and feed in the value at the location instead of the address to it. Change it to a plain char and use &(char) to reference it.
