Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 3/3] arm: fix build with gcc 7



Hi,

The compiler dislikes duplicat "const", and the ones it complains about

look like they we in fact meant to be placed differently.

Also fix array_access_okay() (just like on x86), despite the construct
being unused on ARM: -Wint-in-bool-context, enabled by default in
gcc 7, doesn't like multiplication in conditional operators. "Hide" it,
at the risk of the next compiler version becoming smarter and
recognizing even that. (The hope is that added smartness then would
also better deal with legitimate cases like the one here.) The change
could have been done in access_ok(), but I think we better keep it at
the place the compiler is actually unhappy about.

I am wondering if we should drop array_access_ok and access_ok as they are not used.

Anyway, I am happy with both way:
