| | In apicdef.h - we have a checkpatch issue - needs to be fixed.
| | We were warned by the following checkpatch warning:
| |
| | ERROR: space prohibited before that ':' (ctx:WxW)
| | #276: FILE: arch/x86/include/asm/apicdef.h:376:

| Hi Rakib,
|
| personally I would not change it even having checkpatch
| issue. Really, it's easier to read this bitfield width
| aligned rather then moved left. But this is a personal
| opinion only (sorry).

On the other hands -- I wonder if we need this structure
at all. Perhaps there was an idea to use it with suspend/resume
actions? Ingo, Maciej, Yinghai?
