Subject: [PATCH v23 1/5] PCI: Introduce PCI_SLOT_PLACEHOLDER constant for slot_nr placeholder value
Date: Wed,  5 Aug 2026 09:55:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805165518.794-2-alifm@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805165518.794-1-alifm@linux.ibm.com>

Introduce a constant for placeholder value and update the kerneldoc for
pci_create_slot() to reference PCI_SLOT_PLACEHOLDER instead of -1
throughout. No functional change.
