It looks like a benign typo to me -- `ENUM_VALUE2` does not follow the same pattern like `ENUM_VALUE1`. To me, the presence of the `default` is what indicates (explicitly) that not everything is handled. > Applying a real patch set and then getting a few follow ups the next day > for trivial coding things like fallthrough missing or static missing, > just because I didn't have the full range of compilers to check with > before applying makes me feel pretty shitty, like I'm not doing a good > job. YMMV. The number of compilers, checkers, static analyzers, tests, etc. we use keeps going up. That, indeed, means maintainers will miss more things (unless maintainers do more work than before). But catching bugs before they happen is *not* a bad thing. Perhaps we could encourage more rebasing in -next (while still giving credit to bots and testers) to avoid having many fixing commits afterwards, but that is orthogonal. I really don't think we should encourage the feeling that a maintainer is doing a bad job if they don't catch everything on their reviews. Any review is worth it. Maintainers, in the end, are just the "guaranteed" reviewers that decide when the code looks reasonable enough. They should definitely not feel pressured to be perfect.
