Hi Dirk,
Checking the recent kernel [1] it seems to me that this changes never made
it into mainline.
Does anybody remember why and/or the history?
As for Ulf, it was RFC, so no urge to pick it up. As for me, I was
waiting for more feedback and then it fell through the cracks.
Thanks for bringing it up again. I am curious, does it make a
difference somewhere despite being closer to the docs?
No, not that I'm aware atm. Most probably, its only relevant from
review point of view.
We just found this topic while comparing what was applied to an older
internal test version compared to recent mainline.
So if it does no harm an makes the code closer to the docs, would it
be an option to apply it?
Best regards
Dirk
