[PATCH] produce a warning on unchecked inode_setattr use
The patch below uses the new-in-gcc-3.4 option to generate a warning on unchecked results of marked functions, and applies this to the inode_setattr function (which based on recent bk commits HAS to be checked for it's return value for correct operation). A warning looks like this: fs/ext2/inode.c:1279: warning: ignoring return value of 'inode_setattr', declared with attribute warn_unused_result Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
