Convert a call to init_timer and accompanying intializations of the timer's data and function fields to a call to setup_timer. A simplified version of the semantic match that fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression t,f,d; @@ -init_timer(&t); +setup_timer(&t,f,d); -t.function = f; -t.data = d; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_main.c | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_main.c index 2326579..c88abf5 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/atl1e/atl1e_main.c @@ -2373,9 +2373,8 @@ static int atl1e_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev, const struct pci_device_id *ent) netif_napi_add(netdev, &adapter->napi, atl1e_clean, 64); - init_timer(&adapter->phy_config_timer); - adapter->phy_config_timer.function = atl1e_phy_config; - adapter->phy_config_timer.data = (unsigned long) adapter; + setup_timer(&adapter->phy_config_timer, atl1e_phy_config, + (unsigned long)adapter); /* get user settings */ atl1e_check_options(adapter); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
