I asked follow-up questions because it seems like at least partially a matter of style to say that the business of defining STORAGE_CLASS_SP_C is weird. Maybe there is a better approach than what is currently done, but maybe there isn't. Maybe the checkpatch warning should just be suppressed (if that's something that can be done). I would be grateful for some additional pointers. -- Sean Whitton
