You mean the same stack !frame!, right?

This doesn't seem like required. Does it? This method is called from
two functions: dw_edma_debugfs_regs_wr() and dw_edma_debugfs_regs_rd()
and if I am not mistaken will unlikely be inlined. Even if compiler will
inline it the stack memory consumption won't change much since the
functions aren't called from each other.

I am confused how come these locals've turned to be static const?
Neither my patches nor the Bjorn repo provide such changes:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci.git/tree/drivers/dma/dw-edma/dw-edma-v0-debugfs.c?h=next#n139
they were supposed to be just const.
What repo is this patch based on?

noinline_for_stack, right?
