Link for v1: http://marc.info/?l=linux-sparse&m=144988906932520&w=2 Change since v1: * #undef __irqd_to_state after used (Peter Zijlstra) This patchset introduces a __private modifier for sparse to detect misuses of private members of structs. This could make maintenace a little easier and prevent some potential bugs. This patchset consists of three patches: 1. Introduce __private and related macro, also improve compiler.h a litte bit 2. Privatize rcu_node::lock 3. Privatize irq_common_data::state_use_accessors This patchset is against -rcu/rcu/next c95a158356397844a5a6deb0bd58758084f891df because it depends on commits: "rcu: Create transitive rnp->lock acquisition functions" and "rcu: Add transitivity to remaining rcu_node ->lock acquisitions Tested by 0day. Looking forward to any suggestion, question and comment ;-) Regards, Boqun
