Subject: [PATCH 28/41] x86/alternatives: Rename 'try_get_desc()' to 'try_get_tp_array()'
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2025 21:53:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250327205355.378659-29-mingo@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250327205355.378659-1-mingo@kernel.org>
This better reflects what the underlying code is doing,
there's no 'descriptor' indirection anymore.
