Re: [PATCH 1/5] i2c: Add SMBus alert support

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

 



Hi Jean,

I have a couple of parts I can test this on (connected to a pxa271)
but it may be a little while before I get to it (so don't let me
hold the patch up!)

On tiny point below.  Worth changing if you are doing another roll of the patch
as at least in my dozy Monday evening state it confused me for a few moments!

Thanks,

Jonathan

Can we change the name of data here.  From readability point of view it
would be better not to have this reliance on scope (as data used for 
struct i2c_smbus_alert *data above. (obviously changing it above would 
work as well!)
