Dear Zang Roy-R61911,


[excessive Cc: list trimmed]

In message <2239AC579C7D3646A720227A37E0268115768A@039-SN1MPN1-004.039d.mgd.msft.net> you wrote:

Then I do not understand why you submitted the patch at all before
cleaning it up.

Cleanup patches are welcome.

At least the first version does not violate coding style requirements.

Regarding the general topic of comments - there are such and such
comments.  Things like

	i = i + 1;	/* Increment variable i by one */

are gratuitous and of no use at all.

In your example above, I ask myself why we need
CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR_PHYS at all when whe already have
CONFIG_SYS_CCSRBAR (or vice versa).

And why we need a comment that explains this in grat detail - separate
for each single macro.

Please re-read "Chapter 8: Commenting" in the coding-style document
for more details.


Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

The philosophy exam was a piece of cake  -  which  was  a  bit  of  a
surprise, actually, because I was expecting some questions on a sheet
of paper.
