Subject: [PATCH v2 0/9] random: code cleanups
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 03:07:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1384329436.git.price@mit.edu> (raw)

This series has my cleanups rebased onto the random.git tree, at
v3.11-20-g392a546.

Four of the patches touch comments only.  Three simplify code without
changing its behavior (total diffstat: 32 insertions, 64 deletions).
One drops a use of the lock where it doesn't now protect anything,
and one tightens slightly a bound on a sysctl value to avoid a
pathological case.

The bugfix that was in v1 was taken care of by Peter in a283b5c45
("random: allow fractional bits to be tracked").

Cheers,
Greg
