the above means the following is needed for my drivers - please apply to 2.6:

i386 gets it implicitly from somewhere but some architectures don't.
Also move <asm/uaccess.h> down so we have asm after linux headers.

s2io_rem_nic() is marked __exit and is being referred to from .data.

drivers/net/ixgb/ixgb_main.c: In function `ixgb_intr':
drivers/net/ixgb/ixgb_main.c:1593: warning: unused variable `hw'
(catch by J. Cherry).

This happens because `hw' is only used when CONFIG_IXGB_NAPI is not set.
As `hw' is used only to have the code readable, we can use it for
!CONFIG_IXGB_NAPI too.

Also use "__force" when forcing the user address to "unsigned long"
for the address limit check.

Direct sscanf() on userland buffer in procfs ->write_proc().  Fixed.

Everything straigthforward and takes care of almost all sparse warnings
in fs/reiserfs/*.

Several places in arch/i386/kernel were still un-annotated - they didn't
trip copy_.._user(), so they stayed alive.  Caught and killed.

That's not all - there's a big cluster of them in vm86.c, but I haven't
looked into that code yet.

A bunch of "return in void function" dealt with, removed bogus extern
from definition of __load_new_mm_context(), sanitized fscking ugly
CROSS_64K() helper (even if sparse doesn't segfault on that anymore,
it's _still_ fscking ugly).

	... and that's where I'd found do_utimes() crap before I went
grepping ;-)

Trivial stuff in arch/alpha annotated; in two cases of
osf_proplist_syscall() dereferencing userland pointers replaced with
get_user

#if where #ifdef should've been

Long constants marked as such

Copying primitives annotated.

Fixed the type of SIOCGIFCONF callback; inet instance was already
correctly annotated, decnet one was _not_.  Moreover, decnet callback
needed fixing - dereferencing userland address.

Made ->write_proc in tty_driver suitable for procfs write callback

n_tty annotated, ldisc_struct ->read() and ->write() got __user
on their buf argument.

vt, vt_ioctl, consolemap and selection annotated, struct unimapdesc
and struct consolefontdesc got __user on their pointer members.

tty_ioctl.c annotation

tty_io.c annotated

That "u64" in there is actually struct iocb __user *.  Changed
prototype, killed casts in body and caller...

return void in floppy.h and "conditionally long" constants in page.h.

Would be useful to teach as(1) about C notation for long...

Long constants marked as such.

#if where #ifdef should've been.  Fixed.

Annotation of amd64 code - just adding __user where needed...

	Annotated basic primitives (copy_.._user, get_user, ...).
Functions got __user in prototypes, macros (in uaccess.h) got a
conditional check - see CHECK_UPTR() below.  If you have more elegant
way to deal with the macros - please, tell.

	Annotation of net/* ...copy... that deals with userland pointers +
several bits that fell out of previous patch (trivial annotations)
