I put it the comment there because the other use_foo flag directly above it are all static, so it is there to explain why this one is not static. At least that was my idea behind the comment :) > >> + printk(KERN_INFO "PCI: %s E820 reservations for host bridge windows\n", >> + pci_use_e820 ?

Yes checkpatch complained about this, still I deliberately ignored that, as you said I'm following the existing style here. I very much dislike mixing styles in a single file. If we want to change this for this file then IMHO the right thing to do would be a follow up patch changing all the printk-s at once. Regards, Hans
