Re: [PATCH] powerpc: merge types.h

Gack!  While I doubt that should break anything, I can't promise 100% 
that it won't.  I'll resubmit with that wrapped  up in a nice shiny 
ifdef.

Thanks for the catch - I wouldn't want irate users picketing my house :)

Cheers,
B

This patch merges types.h into include/asm-powerpc.  The only real 
changes
here are that umode_t has become short instead of int in the 64-bit 
case,
which appears to match what most other platforms have done.
Ummm, isn't that an ABI change?  We don't want to do that unless
you're completely absolutely positively sure it couldn't possibly
cause any userspace breakage.

Paul.
