[PATCH] fix ia64 compile failure with gcc4.1
__get_unaligned creates a typeof the var its passed, and writes to it, which on gcc4.1, spits out the following error: drivers/char/vc_screen.c: In function 'vcs_write': drivers/char/vc_screen.c:422: error: assignment of read-only variable 'val' Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> [ The "right" fix would be to try to fix <asm-generic/unaligned.h> but that's hard to do with the tools gcc gives us. So this simpler patch is preferable -- Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
