(drivers/net/lib8390: fix warning, trim trailing whitespace)
The problem is that ei_inb_p() is using various #defines (from

drivers/net/8390.h) that use EI_SHIFT, which in the zorro8390 case uses

ei_local.  Since zorro8390 is only build for m68k, guard the definition of

ei_local with CONFIG_M68K
The patch below fixes the zorro8390 build, and I think will keep the warnings

that Jeff is trying to silence silenced.

Technically, it could also happen on PPC (APUS), but all APUS support got

removed a few months ago.

So maybe CONFIG_ZORRO is more appropriate?

Well as it turns out it can happen in a few other plcaes (the same error

is visible on sh aswell:

Below is a new fix. Thoughts?.

Hi Geert,
On Thu, 15 May 2008 09:17:15 +0200 (CEST) Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m=
No, he didn't.  He reran the build by hand.  Sorry, but there appears to

a bug somewhere in our build system (or one of the tools it is using)

that very occasionally loses a line of the log.  We are trying to track
I have applied this patch to today's linux-next, so that this particular

bug will not prevent the m68k builds.  I am hoping someone will pick it

up (or an equivalent patch) so I can drop it again.
