The one who wrote that diff, whoever he is, obviously don't
understand C code.

Otherwise, why would he write such nonsense:

static uint32_t
iwi_toggle_event(uint32_t r)
{
        r &= ~IWI_RST_STANDBY;
        if (r & IWI_RST_GATE_ODMA)
                r &= ~IWI_RST_GATE_ODMA;
        if (r & IWI_RST_GATE_IDMA)
                r &= ~IWI_RST_GATE_IDMA;
        if (r & IWI_RST_GATE_ADMA)
                r &= ~IWI_RST_GATE_ADMA;
        return r;
}

when you could just write:

r &= ~(IWI_RST_STANDBY | IWI_RST_GATE_ODMA |
       IWI_RST_GATE_IDMA | IWI_RST_GATE_ADMA);

but he sure knows how to steel code from others and
violate the GPL by the way:

>From Linux ipw2200-1.1.0 (GPL):

static u32 ipw_register_toggle(u32 reg)
{
        reg &= ~IPW_START_STANDBY;
        if (reg & IPW_GATE_ODMA)
                reg &= ~IPW_GATE_ODMA;
        if (reg & IPW_GATE_IDMA)
                reg &= ~IPW_GATE_IDMA;
        if (reg & IPW_GATE_ADMA)
                reg &= ~IPW_GATE_ADMA;
        return reg;
}

...mmm very similar right?
