But, if it is not set, it is NULL, in which case, SCHED_OP does the
trick for me, doesn't it?
#define SCHED_OP(opsptr, fn, ...) \
(( (opsptr)->fn != NULL ) ? (opsptr)->fn(opsptr, ##__VA_ARGS__ ) \
: (typeof((opsptr)->fn(opsptr, ##__VA_ARGS__)))0 )
AFAICT, the cases where we want to be absolutely sure whether the hook
"exists" is when we care about its return value, especially if it may
return NULL to report an error (like, for instance, alloc_pdata()), as
that would make it impossible to distinguish between "hook not there"
and "hook failed".
All other cases, should be fine handled like this.
Thanks and Regards,
