Hi Jens, A source of confusion in the block layer is that can be nontrivial to determine which type of flags a u32 function argument accepts. This patch series clears up that confusion for request flags by introducing a new __bitwise type, namely blk_opf_t. Additionally, the type 'int' is change into 'enum req_op' where used to hold a request operation. Analysis of the sparse warnings introduced by this conversion resulted in one bug fix ("blktrace: Trace remap operations correctly"). Although the number of patches in this series is significant, the risk of this patch series is low since most patches involve changing one integer type (int or u32) into another integer type of the same size (enum req_op or blk_opf_t). Please consider this patch series for kernel v5.20. Thanks, Bart. Changes compared to v1: - Combined request operation and flags into a single variable or argument. - Changed the type of several enum req_op arguments into blk_opf_t for future extensibility. - Removed the __force casts from tracing code. - Added a few additional patches that convert additional block drivers.
