I think the real reason is not to keep consistent with vga_iostate_to_str() but because vga_str_to_iostate() is actually only taking "unsigned int *" parameters. > Signed-off-by: Sui Jingfeng <suijingf...@loongson.cn> > --- > drivers/pci/vgaarb.c | 29 +++++++++++++++-------------- > include/linux/vgaarb.h | 8 +++----- > 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/pci/vgaarb.c b/drivers/pci/vgaarb.c > index 5a696078b382..e40e6e5e5f03 100644 > --- a/drivers/pci/vgaarb.c > +++ b/drivers/pci/vgaarb.c > @@ -61,7 +61,6 @@ static bool vga_arbiter_used; > static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(vga_lock); > static DECLARE_WAIT_QUEUE_HEAD(vga_wait_queue); > > - drop this change > static const char *vga_iostate_to_str(unsigned int iostate) > { > /* Ignore VGA_RSRC_IO and VGA_RSRC_MEM */ > @@ -77,10 +76,12 @@ static const char *vga_iostate_to_str(unsigned int > iostate) > return "none"; > } > > -static int vga_str_to_iostate(char *buf, int str_size, int *io_state) > +static int vga_str_to_iostate(char *buf, int str_size, unsigned int > *io_state) this is OK, it's actually what you are describing in the commit log, but... > { > - /* we could in theory hand out locks on IO and mem > - * separately to userspace but it can cause deadlocks */ > + /* > + * we could in theory hand out locks on IO and mem > + * separately to userspace but it can cause deadlocks > + */ ... all the rest needs to go on different patches as it doesn't have anything to do with what you describe.
