Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] drivers/core: simplify variadic args handling
Date: Mon, 01 Dec 2025 10:31:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251201-va_format_call-v2-3-2906f3093b60@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251201-va_format_call-v2-0-2906f3093b60@intel.com>

Changing argument type from va_list to struct va_format * allows
to simplify variadic argument handling with va_format_call helper.
