From 0df4d8ef77f7e1251763d429f5ddbf5373961714 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Munsie Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2010 11:00:37 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] USB: Remove large struct from the stack in USB storage isd200 driver The compiler throws the following warning when compiling for a PowerPC 64 bit machine: drivers/usb/storage/isd200.c:580: warning: the frame size of 2208 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes There is a struct scsi_device which is placed on the stack and is largely responsible for such wastage. The struct is just a dummy struct filled with NULLs and set as the scsi_cmnd->device to make the usb_stor_Bulk_transport function happy. This patch makes the struct static, so that it is never placed onto the stack and silences the compiler warning.
