Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: remove thisboard macro in the ssv_dnp driver
Date: Tue, 22 May 2012 18:08:36 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201205221808.36694.hartleys@visionengravers.com> (raw)

The 'thisboard' macro depends on having a local variable with
a magic name. The CodingStyle document suggests not doing this
to avoid confusion. Remove the macro and use the comedi_board()
inline helper to get the dev->board_ptr information.
