Subject: [PATCH 7.2.y 1/2] PCI: Introduce PCI_SLOT_PLACEHOLDER constant for slot_nr placeholder value
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 07:47:43 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260909114744.2013430-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090354-paralyses-labored-e273@gregkh>
From: Farhan Ali <alifm@linux.ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit c243e6c470c4695965cc8287767925bc1d9a7867 ]
Introduce a constant for placeholder value and update the kerneldoc for
pci_create_slot() to reference PCI_SLOT_PLACEHOLDER instead of -1
throughout. No functional change.
