[Outreachy kernel] [PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: Change the type and use of a variable

[Fabio M. De Francesco]

Change the type of fw_current_in_ps_mode from u8 to bool, because
it is used everywhere as a bool and, accordingly, it should be
declared as a bool. Shorten the controlling
expression of an 'if' statement.

I now have 3 patches, I think, for this same driver, from you, and I
have no idea what order they should be applied in.

So I'm going to drop them all.  Can you please resend me a patch series,
with all of the outstanding patches sent to me from you that I have not
applied yet, so that I know which ones to look at and what order to
apply them in?

thanks,

greg k-h

I just sent in the series of patches you requested. Hope the work is as you 
expected.

If you make multiple patches that touch the same files they have to be in
a series.
