For various types, there seem to be a few hundred of these, eg: static const struct hda_pcm_stream alc269_44k_pcm_analog_playback = { .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_44100, /* fixed rate */ }; static const struct hda_pcm_stream alc269_44k_pcm_analog_capture = { .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_44100, /* fixed rate */ }; Would it be desirable to remove them? I guess one would have to check that there are not any pointer equality checks on these values. Would it be useful to put a #define to keep the orignal names? julia -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
