As Dan pointed out, you _HAVE_ to test-build your changes.

Also, your "From:" line didn't match your signed-off-by line, so I
couldn't accept this anyway.

thanks,

Thanks for pointing out the error , but this patch is not needed as it
was for fixing a warning produced by checkpatch.pl that says struct
comedi_lrange is usually constant . But on building the code I get
another warning which says that the type qualifier is useless.

Regards,
Srishti
