Subject: [PATCH 2/2] modpost: simplify file name generation of *.mod.c files
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2014 12:25:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1408962316-19921-3-git-send-email-minipli@googlemail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1408962316-19921-1-git-send-email-minipli@googlemail.com>

Avoid the variable length array (vla), just use PATH_MAX instead.
This not only makes this code clang friedly, it also leads to a
code size reduction:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  51765    2224   12416   66405   10365 scripts/mod/modpost.old
  51677    2224   12416   66317   1030d scripts/mod/modpost.new
