Subject: [PATCH 3/7] x86: pat.c more trivial changes
Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 22:03:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080620200306.GE4105@alberich.amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080620195503.GB4105@alberich.amd.com>


 - add BUG statement to catch invalid start and end parameters
 - No need to track the actual type in both req_type and actual_type --
   keep req_type unchanged.
 - removed (IMHO) superfluous comments
