[PATCH 04/10] m68k/mac: Clarify IOP message alloc/free confusion

From: Finn Thain
Date: Sat Apr 08 2017 - 19:51:50 EST


The alloc/free metaphor used for IOP messages is misleading and can
cause mistakes like the pointless msg2 temporary variable. Use a more
meaningful name to help simplify the code.
