#1197183 — Requesting inclusion of 12dd7ecf2323 in linux-3.14.y

Hello Greg and al,

Do you accept trivial patches for stable?

If so, could you apply 12dd7ecf2323 to linux-3.14.y?

Apprently, we've had this patch locally since 2012,
but no one cared to push it upstream :-(

    lockd: avoid warning when CONFIG_SYSCTL undefined
    
    When building without CONFIG_SYSCTL, the compiler saw an unused
    label. This moves the label into the #ifdef it is used under.
    
    fs/lockd/svc.c: In function ‘init_nlm’:
    fs/lockd/svc.c:626:1: warning: label ‘err_sysctl’ defined but not used [-Wunused-label]

Regards.

Not really, take a look at Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt for the
full list.

Everyone who really uses the kernel enables CONFIG_SYSCTL, so I don't
see this being something that is worth adding to the tree.

thanks,
