Sometimes you use the union directly, sometimes not. What was your
heuristic for that?

Oh it is just that I had previously used a new variable in function airo_set_mode(),
and then I immediately ran into this similar scenario (function airo_get_mode) and
I said "wait a second, why don't I directly use the union, instead? :thinking_face:"
and I did, and moved on. :P


Regardless, looks good!

Thanks for this!

BTW, I already have a new series (this time a 4-patch series, instead of 6), with
the latest fixes, here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gustavoars/linux.git/log/?h=6.1-rc1-Wcast-function-type-strict

I think we could quickly review it tomorrow before I send it out. :)
