How does such a feedback fit to another known information source? Section “7) Centralized exiting of functions” https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/coding-style.rst?h=v6.8-rc6#n526 > Someone is going to add a _scoped() loop which uses cleanup.h magic to > call _put automatically. This is a good option. I became also curious how scope-based resource management will influence Linux coding styles further. Will various collateral evolution become more interesting?
