Thanks Nishanth,

I considered this approach before but in terms of maintainability I thought it was easier to locate where translator tables are destroy if we keep cmm_xlator_delete function.

That's not maintainability, that's debugging convenience. AFAIU linux
is all about maintenance, because that provides real, tangible, and
proven gains. Debugging convenience gains are hypothetical; you don't
really know how useful it will be to have a separate free function.

And please avoid bottom-posting, instead use interleaved style,
otherwise people see a comment, and then have to scroll down to see
the answer.

May be better to use explicit values in condition?

Ok, but you will have to fix this up eventually, you need to use the
in-kernel library functions, or fix the in-kernel ones to add the
support you need.

This is done intentionally and it is used to debug the dsp.  The system will hang here, and then Lautherback or jtag can be connected to take control of the program execution from this point.

It is recommended to use strict_strtoul instead of simple_strtoul since ensures the string is really a valid unsigned long. This also removes checkpatch warning message.

I think this is ok as it is, I'm not sure but I think it maybe defined in any C ansi book, in this case if ret_val is unequal to 0 ret_val is returned.
