[RFC v3 02/45] dma-mapping: Use unsigned long for dma_attrs

Krzysztof Kozlowski k.kozlowski at samsung.com
Fri Jun 3 01:39:04 AEST 2016


The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the
DMA attributes passed by pointer.  Thus the pointer can point to const
data.  However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead
unsigned long will do fine:

1. This is just simpler.  Both in terms of reading the code and setting
   attributes.  Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
   and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.

2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
   attributes are passed by value.

Semantic patches for this change (at least most of them):
