[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Aravind Gopalakrishnan <Aravind.Gopalakrishnan@xxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit b44915927ca88084a7292e4ddd4cf91036f365e1 ]

The comment line regarding IOMMU_INIT and IOMMU_INIT_FINISH
macros is incorrect:

  "The standard vs the _FINISH differs in that the _FINISH variant
  will continue detecting other IOMMUs in the call list..."

It should be "..the *standard* variant will continue
detecting..."

Fix that. Also, make it readable while at it.
