From fc395b9291925b1880e0afc61274fe2f6ddc1269 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Beulich Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2012 15:47:37 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] x86: Properly parenthesize cmpxchg() macro arguments Quite oddly, all of the arguments passed through from the top level macros to the second level which didn't need parentheses had them, while the only expression (involving a parameter) needing them didn't. Very recently I got bitten by the lack thereof when using something like "array + index" for the first operand, with "array" being an array more narrow than int.
