For the simple reason that this line violates the 80 columns and I didn't want to bring any uglification to the code by breaking the line in two. For the generated asm it doesn't matter - it is simply done for keeping the code as readable as possible. > >- for (i = 0; i < banks; i++) { > >+ > >+ for (i = 0; i < num_banks; i++) { > > struct mce_bank *b = &mce_banks[i]; > > > > b->ctl = -1ULL; > >@@ -1401,7 +1405,7 @@ static int __cpuinit __mcheck_cpu_cap_init(void) > > rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_MCG_CAP, cap); > > > > b = cap & MCG_BANKCNT_MASK; > >- if (!banks) > >+ if (!mca_cfg.banks) > > pr_info("CPU supports %d MCE banks\n", b); > > > > if (b > MAX_NR_BANKS) { > >@@ -1411,8 +1415,9 @@ static int __cpuinit __mcheck_cpu_cap_init(void) > > } > > > > /* Don't support asymmetric configurations today */ > >- WARN_ON(banks != 0 && b != banks); > >- banks = b; > >+ WARN_ON(mca_cfg.banks != 0 && b != mca_cfg.banks); > >+ mca_cfg.banks = b; > >+ > > if (!mce_banks) { > > int err = __mcheck_cpu_mce_banks_init(); > > > >@@ -1448,7 +1453,7 @@ static void __mcheck_cpu_init_generic(void) > > if (cap & MCG_CTL_P) > > wrmsr(MSR_IA32_MCG_CTL, 0xffffffff, 0xffffffff); > > > >- for (i = 0; i < banks; i++) { > >+ for (i = 0; i < mca_cfg.banks; i++) { > > struct mce_bank *b = &mce_banks[i]; > > > > if (!b->init) > >@@ -1489,6 +1494,8 @@ static void quirk_sandybridge_ifu(int bank, struct mce > >*m, struct pt_regs *regs) > > /* Add per CPU specific workarounds here */ > > static int __cpuinit __mcheck_cpu_apply_quirks(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c) > > { > >+ struct mca_config *cfg = &mca_cfg; > >+ > > Same as above. We could probably continue using mca_cfg for uniformity. There are 13 mca_cfg references total in that function so having it shorter with a declaration at the beginning of the function of what cfg is, is better IMO.
