They really are, and the "take the address of a single character" makes the string fortification code unhappy (it believes that you can now only acccess one byte, rather than a byte range, and then raises errors for the memory copies going on in there). We could now remove a few 'addressof' operators (since arrays naturally degrade to pointers), but this is the minimal patch that just changes the C prototypes of those template arrays (the templates themselves are defined in inline asm).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
