clang warns about unusual code in floppy.c that looks like it
was intended to be a bit mask operation, checking for a specific
bit in the UDP->cmos variable (FLOPPY1_TYPE expands to '4' on
ARM):
drivers/block/floppy.c:3902:17: error: use of logical '&&' with constant operand [-Werror,-Wconstant-logical-operand]
if (!UDP->cmos && FLOPPY1_TYPE)
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/block/floppy.c:3902:17: note: use '&' for a bitwise operation
if (!UDP->cmos && FLOPPY1_TYPE)
The check here is redundant anyway, if FLOPPY1_TYPE is zero, then
assigning it to a zero UDP->cmos field does not change anything,
so removing the extra check here has no effect other than shutting
up the warning.
On x86, this will no longer read a hardware register, as the
FLOPPY1_TYPE macro is not expanded if UDP->cmos is already
zero, but the result is the same.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
