There are times on interior work where a latex primer is the preffered undercoater for oil base enamel. Your walls should be fine as is but if you want to recoat with latex, you must first sand and then coat the walls with a solvent based primer.
Basically, oil base paints can be applied over most any interior paint but not the other way around. Exterior latex paints can be applied over weathered exterior paint.
