Quick rehash:
We like named struct initialized, they make for less ifdef's,
cleaner-looking code, easier to read, and smaller line counts.
As a first step, I wanted to cleanup file_operations initializers
based on Alsa possibly adding some entries and wanting to do
some quick perf checks to see if we can save some cache misses
rearranging the members of this struct (moving on later to
inode_operations)
Updated:
Created perl script to convert gcc syntax initializers to c99
initializers. Doing this on a pre-patch 2.3.42 allows me to post
2 patches of cleanup, mutually exclusive. One if Linus likes
gcc syntax, one if he likes c99 syntax
Note that the script doesn't convert structs with non-named
initializers, mainly because it's hard to correctly handle all
the ifdef's out there automatically... might make a version to
handle structs w/o such cases and just flag the ones with cpp
statements for manual fixup... hmmm
