Don't split literal strings, it means that grepping the source tree for "already
registered" fails. Making grep for a string work is more important than shutting up
checkpatch.

Don't split literal strings, it means that grepping the source tree for "already
registered" fails. Making grep for a string work is more
or indirectly, there's already specialized tools
for doing that sort of thing, such as 'cxref'.

Hi, Frank.
The universal approach that always works in this and many similar cases is just
to replace the instrumented binary by your interception shell script.
E.g. rename gcc to gcc.hide (generally, moving into another location may not
work) and setup 'gcc' script that does what you want:
filesystem in the kernel tree.
->check_flags() is used by nfs only, and just checks the flags, as it's name
suggests.

Hi,
according to the documentation, [rcu_dereference_protected( ptr, condition )] is the
"update-side primitive" that reads the ptr, "allowing the code to verify that the
required locks really are held".
Given that, I expect that literal `1' as `condition' would imply just "reading the
ptr".
