Here some examples of the names I want to change.
Why? What actual improvement would accrue from doing this?
Hi Valdis,
thanks for your response.
I am working on rtl8192e in the staging area. Reason is that the
hardware is commonly available and this driver will be used a long time
from now.
This driver is not removed from the staging area without cleaning up
checkpatch errors. Main issue with the long variable names is that the
snake_case is making the names even longer. So when having a chance to
shortem them this will improve readability for the bigger tasks.
(Hint: the code is almost certainly in drivers/staging because it has
far worse issues than just using camel-case variable names...)
Yes but we need to start somewhere. Yes I do like to do more than what I
did so far (remove dead code, fix checkpatch errors, remove ftrace like
logging) up to now.
Do you know what issues that are and a way to improve this? I do like to
know what is next.
Thanks for your support.
Bye Philipp
