This sort of code, with a repeated struct dereference, generally reads better using a temporary and is also less prone to typo use.
struct device *dev = &xlink_dev->pdev->dev;
struct xlink_buf_mem *lxm = &xlink_dev->local_xlink_mem;
lxm->dev = init_xlink_reserved_mem_dev(dev, "xlink_local_reserved",
LOCAL_XLINK_IPC_BUFFER_IDX);
if (!lxm->dev)
return -ENOMEM;
> + xlink_dev->local_xlink_mem.size = get_xlink_reserved_mem_size(dev,
> + LOCAL_XLINK_IPC_BUFFER_IDX);
lxm->size = get_xlink_reserved_mem_size(dev, LOCAL_XLINK_IPC_BUFFER_IDX);
etc...
[Kelly, Seamus] Thank you! will do.
