Re: [Patch v2 3/6] cifs: smbd: Avoid allocating iov on the stack

[Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>]

Didn't see any obvious problems, but can you fix the checkpatch
warnings and resend to the list (I am more concerned about the last
two warnings rather than the first one).

$ scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-cifs-smbd-Avoid-allocating-iov-on-the-stack.patch
WARNING: line over 80 characters
#60: FILE: fs/cifs/smbdirect.c:2106:
+        log_write(ERR, "expected the pdu length in 1st iov, but got
0x%lu\n", rqst->rq_iov[0].iov_len);

ERROR: Prefixing 0x with decimal output is defective
#60: FILE: fs/cifs/smbdirect.c:2106:
+        log_write(ERR, "expected the pdu length in 1st iov, but got
0x%lu\n", rqst->rq_iov[0].iov_len);

WARNING: braces {} are not necessary for single statement blocks
#69: FILE: fs/cifs/smbdirect.c:2112:
+    for (i = 0; i < rqst->rq_nvec-1; i++) {
         buflen += iov[i].iov_len;
     }

total: 1 errors, 2 warnings, 65 lines checked

NOTE: For some of the reported defects, checkpatch may be able to
      mechanically convert to the typical style using --fix or --fix-inplace.

0001-cifs-smbd-Avoid-allocating-iov-on-the-stack.patch has style
problems, please review.
