The defined constant MIMO_PS_STATIC is used for this test for zero elsewhere in code so the magic number '0' has been replaced with that comment, which was actually explicitly mentioned in the comment. This is a simple coding style change which should have no impact on runtime code execution.

Removed unnecessary parentheses and this resolve the check patch issue. Structure dereference operator have higher precedence then Address of operator So there is no need of parentheses. This change is purely coding style in nature and should have not effect on runtime code execution.

The macro cpMacAddr implements the same functionality as the ether_addr_copy function defined in etherdevice.h, as a result the macro has been removed from the code, and its use replaced with the function call. Note that the header comment of the function ether_addr_copy states that the two byte arrays passed as parameters to the function must be u16 aligned. Because of this the structure ieee80211_network has had its member variables re-ordered so that the members bssid and MBssid are aligned to a u16 boundary.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.19_dax-memory-failure' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang: "As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax mappings. In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses: 1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races that would typically be handled by the page lock. 2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn. 3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel. A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax. Specifically the current behavior is: mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200 {1}[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged {1}[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected Memory failure: 0xaf34214: reserved kernel page still referenced by 1 users [..] Memory failure: 0xaf34214: recovery action for reserved kernel page: Failed mce: Memory error not recovered <reboot> ...and with these changes: Injecting memory failure for pfn 0x20cb00 at process virtual address 0x7f763dd00000 Memory failure: 0x20cb00: Killing dax-pmd:5421 due to hardware memory corruption Memory failure: 0x20cb00: recovery action for dax page: Recovered Given all the cross dependencies I propose taking this through nvdimm.git with acks from Naoya, x86/core, x86/RAS, and of course dax folks" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.19_dax-memory-failure' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: libnvdimm, pmem: Restore page attributes when clearing errors x86/memory_failure: Introduce {set, clear}_mce_nospec() x86/mm/pat: Prepare {reserve, free}_memtype() for "decoy" addresses mm, memory_failure: Teach memory_failure() about dev_pagemap pages filesystem-dax: Introduce dax_lock_mapping_entry() mm, memory_failure: Collect mapping size in collect_procs() mm, madvise_inject_error: Let memory_failure() optionally take a page reference mm, dev_pagemap: Do not clear ->mapping on final put mm, madvise_inject_error: Disable MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE for ZONE_DEVICE pages filesystem-dax: Set page->index device-dax: Set page->index device-dax: Enable page_mapping() device-dax: Convert to vmf_insert_mixed and vm_fault_t

This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during the page table copy operation. It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it was already not writable. This patch was inspired by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447 which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the presence of lots of signals. That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series culminating in commit c3ad2c3b ("signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

At the point where r is being checked for different values, r is always going to be equal to 2 as the previous if statements jump to end or end1 if r is not 2. Hence the assignment to err can be simplified to just err an assignment without any checks on the value or r.
