Better to describe the reason and not what we do. Something like: /* * Clear tag references to avoid debug warning when using * __alloc_tag_ref_set() with non-empty reference. */ > + set_codetag_empty(&ref_old); > + set_codetag_empty(&ref_new); > + > /* swap tags */ > __alloc_tag_ref_set(&ref_old, tag_new); > update_page_tag_ref(handle_old, &ref_old); > -- > 2.39.2 > >
