The patch titled Subject: mm: sparse: consistently use _nr has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-sparse-consistently-use-_nr.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-sparse-consistently-use-_nr.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Dev Jain <dev.jain@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm: sparse: consistently use _nr Date: Fri, 31 May 2024 18:11:44 +0530 Consistently name the return variable with an _nr suffix, whenever calling pfn_to_section_nr(), to avoid confusion with a (struct mem_section *).
