[PATCH v4 00/15] checkpatch clean-up of rtl8723au's rtw_security.c

From: M. Vefa Bicakci
Date: Sat Mar 28 2015 - 08:53:25 EST


These commits address a number of checkpatch.pl warnings and errors
in rtl8723au's rtw_security.c.

Prior to this set of commits, checkpatch.pl reported the following:
total: 76 errors, 138 warnings, 1621 lines checked

After applying this set of commits, checkpatch.pl reports the following:
total: 0 errors, 26 warnings, 1624 lines checked
where the only remaining warnings relate to lines longer than 80
characters and quoted strings split across multiple lines.

There are also a number of commits which improve the code in other ways.
For example, the commit titled "Reorganize a few functions to remove
indentation" reworks two functions to make them more readable, whereas
the commit titled "Rework two byte array comparisons" reworks two CRC
verifications for the same reason, and "Use __func__ in trace logs"
avoids hardcoding function names in trace logs to increase
maintainability.

All of the commits have been verified to compile successfully via the
use of the interactive rebase feature of git.
