Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] media: radio: si470x: Fix DRIVER_AUTHOR macro definition
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2025 20:06:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251010030610.3032147-2-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251010030348.it.784-kees@kernel.org>
The DRIVER_AUTHOR macro incorrectly included a semicolon in its
string literal definition. Right now, this wasn't causing any real
problem, but coming changes to the MODULE_INFO() macro make this more
sensitive. Specifically, when used with MODULE_AUTHOR(), this created
syntax errors during macro expansion:
MODULE_AUTHOR(DRIVER_AUTHOR);
expands to:
MODULE_INFO(author, "Joonyoung Shim <jy0922.shim@samsung.com>";)
^
syntax error
Remove the trailing semicolon from the DRIVER_AUTHOR definition.
Semicolons should only appear at the point of use, not in the macro
definition.
