The rationale seems a bit sparse. Why is it renamed? Because the name fits better, because you need the same for something else? > static void submit_bh_wbc(blk_opf_t opf, struct buffer_head *bh, > - enum rw_hint hint, struct writeback_control *wbc); > + u8 hint, struct writeback_control *wbc); And moving from the enum to an plain integer seems like a bit of a retrograde step. _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
