[PATCH][V2] cpuidle : rename function name "__cpuidle_register_driver"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function __cpuidle_register_driver name is confusing because it
suggests, conforming to the coding style of the kernel, it registers
the driver without taking a lock. Actually, it just fill the different
power field states with a decresing value if the power has not been
specified.

Clarify the purpose of the function by changing its name and
move the condition out of this function.

This patch fix nothing and does not change the behavior of the
function. It is just for the sake of clarity.

IHMO, reading in the code:

+       if (!drv->power_specified)
+               set_power_states(drv);

is much more explicit than:

-       __cpuidle_register_driver(drv);
