[microblaze-uclinux] Bug at line 497 of mmnommu/slab.c?



Hi All,

I think I just found a bug at line 497 of mmnommu/slab.c:
   "0" -> "0L"

It was preventing my kernel from booting during the 'kmem_cache_init()'
phase by giving a bogus cache size to a lower level function, which was, in
turn, bailing out to 'machine_halt' after being asked to create a cache of
over 3 billion bytes.

What's curious is this: the fix doesn't appear in the current CVS archive.
So, my question is, how is anyone running successfully with this bug
present?

Thanks for any insights,
