Subject: [Cocci] [PATCH v1 4/6] moduleparam.h: add module_param_config_*() helpers
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2015 16:30:35 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1429572637-30234-5-git-send-email-mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1429572637-30234-1-git-send-email-mcgrof@do-not-panic.com>
From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@suse.com>
This adds a couple of bool module_param_config_*() helpers
which are designed to let us easily associate a booloean
module parameter with an associated kernel configuration
option, and to help us remove #ifdef'ery eyesores.
