Don't add stupid bloat to the kernel because somebody is silly enough to care about a 32-bit oprofile working with a 64-bit kernel.
Being that 32-bit is the primary (and in many ways, ONLY) userland for at least 2 64-bit kernel platforms, I think this does matter.
We're exporting an int to userland, what kind of bloat is that really? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
