Subject: [PATCH 1/3] vgacon: Fix & cleanup refcounting
Date: Tue, 13 May 2014 10:09:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1399975769-30526-2-git-send-email-tiwai@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1399975769-30526-1-git-send-email-tiwai@suse.de>

The vgacon driver prepares a two element array of uni_pagedir_loc and
uses the second item as its own reference counter for sharing the
uni_pagedir.  And the code assumes blindly that the second item is
available if the assigned vc_uni_pagedir isn't the standard one, which
might be wrong (although currently it's so).

This patch fixes that wrong assumption, and gives a slight cleanup
along with it: namely, instead of array, just give the uni_pagedir_loc
and a separate refcount variable.  It makes the code a bit more
understandable at first glance.
