I have no problems with adding parameter names. But
scripts/checkpatch.pl doesn't seem to check for this, nor require it.
Should checkpatch be updated?
I'm pretty sure that's not feasible.
Ugh. This is a definition, not a declaration. My bad. Which is likely
why I decided to apologize up front.
And when the compiler tells you you've stuffed up some
syntactical bit, why should checkpatch duplicate the
output error message too?
Well, that's the point: neither the 4.8 nor 5.4 compiler complained
about this.
Perhaps because CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUGFS was set in the .config
for all the compilation previously performed?
Well, you'd think maybe so, but I forced a recompilation of that one
file (i915_oa_bxt.c) and no complaint with 5.4. Weird.
Ah, well. Onward to patch version 6.
Thanks again.
