Hi Sam ,

I get this warnings with a randconfig ( http://194.231.229.228/git-current/randconfig-auto-36 ) :


...

With the same config I see this warnings as well but I think this is a different problem.

...

arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_cat.c: In function 'voyager_cat_init':
arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_cat.c:685: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type
arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_cat.c:755: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type
