module_param: make bool parameters really bool (net & drivers/net)

Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. It’s time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version it’ll simply give a warning, but it’ll break next kernel version. (Thanks to Joe Perches for suggesting coccinelle for 0/1 …

net: fix assignment of 0/1 to bool variables.

Author: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> DaveM said: Please, this kind of stuff rots forever and not using bool properly drives me crazy. Joe Perches gave me the spatch script: @@ bool b; @@ -b = 0 +b = false @@ bool b; @@ -b = 1 +b = true I merely installed coccinelle, read the documentation …

staging:iio: Remove redundant spi driver bus initialization

Author: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> In ancient times it was necessary to manually initialize the bus field of an spi_driver to spi_bus_type. These days this is done in spi_register_driver() so we can drop the manual assignment. The patch was generated using the following coccinelle semantic patch: // @@ identifier _driver; @@ struct spi_driver _driver = { …
