[PATCH 0/2] Replace explicit function pointer types with rcu_callback_t and call_rcu_func_t

From: Boqun Feng
Date: Wed Jul 29 2015 - 01:29:56 EST


Commit ("rcu: Create a synchronize_rcu_mult()") in linux-rcu.git#rcu/next
branch has introduced rcu_callback_t as the type for rcu callback
functions and call_rcu_func_t has been introduced for a while. This patch
series uses the rcu_callback_t and call_rcu_func_t to save a few lines of
code.

This patchset is based on rcu/next branch of Paul's linux-rcu tree, and
consists of two patches:

1. Use rcu_callback_t as the type of callbacks in call_rcu*() and
friends

2. Use call_rcu_func_t to replace the equivalent but complicated
function pointer type.

Besides cleaning up the code, this patchset can also help code tag program,
such as cscope to generate a better database.

This patchset has been already tested by 0day.

Regards,
Boqun
