Well it actually converts menelaus_ack_irq() too, but that's not the point I was making. I can see that the 'code' is different, but the functionality of the patch is the same i.e. converting functions to pass around the menelaus_chip pointer for eradication of the_menelaus global pointer. I'm not concerned about the 'lines changed' count. The change your making is trivial, thus there is no requirement to split unnecessarily over 5 patches. Please squash them into a single functionality patch. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
