This isn't true for clk_enable(). "I find it acceptable that some of my update suggestions do not fit to your quality expectations at the moment." -- https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/22/446 It's frustrating that you make the same mistake over and over and you are fine with doing that. If you make a mistake and you are fixing a bug, then hopefully you fix more bugs than you introduce. If you make a mistake and you are doing a cleanup then you are really just introducing bugs and that's not helpful. I wish you would find something useful to do instead of sending these patches. :( regards, dan carpenter
