Subject: [SPARC]: Fix serial console node string creation.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23-rc2~155^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f623f388e4f83c01ac23f228247a6a4b9cc71111;p=linux-2.6

[SPARC]: Fix serial console node string creation.

The string setting code depends upon the original value of the
"skip" variable, not the one that gets modified by the node
traversal loop.

Based upon a patch by Mark Fortescue.
