True, but this is a *temporary* copy of pci_intx(), a ~16 year old function. Older C programmers had the habit of for some reason using 32-bit integers for a true/false boolean all the time. We _could_ think of changing pci_intx()'s parameter to a boolean, but I think it wouldn't really improve things very much see also below > > > + * Enables/disables PCI INTx for device @pdev > > + * > > + * This function behavios identically to pci_intx(), but is never > > managed with > > + * devres. > > behavios? -> behaves.

We had this conversation last week. I answered on that already, maybe you have overlooked it: https://lore.kernel.org/all/a8d9f32f60f55c58d79943c4409b8b94535ff853.camel@xxxxxxxxxx/ Please also take a look at patch 11, then you'll see the full picture Danke, Philipp > > Thanks, > > tglx >
