There are some reasons why I have become such a description. - The purpose of this patch is the resolution of the line over 80 characters issue - I Wrote the code to be aware of the following: -- Do not change the procedure -- The shallow nest -- To avoid the redundancy If I do not use a function pointer, which take the form below. if (0x00 == data[i + 2]) dev_dbg(&port->dev, "Line status status.\n"); else dev_dbg(&port->dev, "Modem status status.\n"); if (i > limit) { dev_dbg(&port->dev, "Illegal escape seuences in received data\n"); return 0; } if (0x00 == data[i + 2]) ProcessLineStatus(qt_port, data[i + 3]); else ProcessModemStatus(qt_port, data[i + 3]); return 1; I also feel it may be... And I am against to move the dev_dbg procedure call to qt_status_change_check procedure because the nesting will be so deep. >> if (urb->status) { >> qt_port->ReadBulkStopped = 1; >> - dev_dbg(&urb->dev->dev, "%s - nonzero write bulk status received: %d\n", >> + dev_dbg(&urb->dev->dev, >> + "%s - nonzero write bulk status received: %d\n", >> __func__, urb->status); > > Don't mix in these unrelated 80 character limit changes. I think the purpose of refactoring is the resolution of the line over 80 characters issue. I think that the separation of the patch should stop taking because they are already applied in the linux-next tree. Thanks.
