Well, there's a side effect of this patch: it allows gcc to better optimize the text size, with is good: text data bss dec hex filename 34538 2320 0 36858 8ffa old/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.o 34490 2320 0 36810 8fca new/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.o > What's this, smatch?

I'll add the enclosed patch changing it to ioc_size. Thanks, Mauro [PATCH] media: v4l2-ioctl: rename a temp var that stores _IOC_SIZE(cmd) Instead of just calling it as "size", let's name it as "ioc_size", as it reflects better its contents. As this is constant along the function, also mark it as const.
