From: Fabio Estevam <[email protected]> The Beceem WIMAX was generating compile warnings on 64bit machines, which were:
drivers/staging/bcm/CmHost.c: In function ‘StoreCmControlResponseMessage’: drivers/staging/bcm/CmHost.c:1503:3: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast] (struct bcm_connect_mgr_params *) ntohl( ^ drivers/staging/bcm/CmHost.c:1546:3: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast] (struct bcm_connect_mgr_params *) ntohl( ^ drivers/staging/bcm/CmHost.c:1564:3: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast] (struct bcm_connect_mgr_params *) ntohl( This resolves the issue by preventing the driver to compile if CONFIG_64BIT is enabled, since the driver is known to be broken for 64 bit arch's.
