Instead, pls define a function called snp_prep_memory(unsigned long pa, unsigned int num_pages, enum operation); or so which does all the manipulation needed and the callsites only simply unconditionally call that function so that all detail is extracted and optimized away when not config-enabled. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. https://people.kernel.org/tglx/notes-about-netiquette
