When fixing warnings and build errors, please do quote the compiler
output in the changelog. Ditto sparse, etc.

I was admiring this the other day. The compiler (my one at least) says

drivers/isdn/hysdn/hysdn_pof.h:63: warning: 'packed' attribute ignored for field of type 'unsigned char[39u]'

39u != 0x28. What's up with that?
