Also, please use the checkpatch in -next as it has a slightly better mechanism to identify functions and uses in strings. $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl ~/1.patch WARNING: Prefer using '"%s...", __func__' to using 'mux_chip_register', this function's name, in a string #302: FILE: drivers/mux/mux-core.c:134: + "device_add failed in mux_chip_register: %d\n", ret); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-iio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
