* First, the mistake was not in commit 14c985cffa6cb -- I see that "git
blame" fingers that commit, but if you actually show the commit, it
added the macro with a non-empty replacement text:
+#define PC_COMPAT_2_8 \
+ {\
+ .driver = TYPE_X86_CPU,\
+ .property = "l3-cache",\
+ .value = "off",\
+ },
+
+
Instead, the mistake was (apparently) in commit 152fcbecad37, where
PC_COMPAT_2_8 was "emptied", but preserved.
* Second, you do realize periodic contributors / reviewers like me
cannot be expected to do a good job writing / reviewing patches if
existing practice in the tree cannot be trusted as example.
If a standalone (empty) PC_COMPAT_2_9 macro is wrong / confusing (which
I agree it could be), then the empty PC_COMPAT_2_8 macro was wrong /
confusing just the same, and the reviewers of 152fcbecad37 should have
arguably caught it at that time.
Anyway, my R-b stands, with whichever updates you prefer from my
suggestions.
