[PATCH v5] staging: media: atomisp: pci Move GP_TIMER_BASE to where it is used
From: Anushka Badhe
Date: Thu Mar 26 2026 - 16:28:38 EST
GP_TIMER_BASE is only used in gp_timer.c, so there is no need to
define it in system_local.c and declare it as extern in system_local.h.
Move the definition directly into gp_timer.c and remove the extern
declaration from system_local.h, along with its mention in gp_timer.h.

Thank you so much for your guidance.
Changes in v5:
- Move GP_TIMER_BASE definition to gp_timer.c
- Remove extern from system_local.h
- Remove include of system_local.h from gp_timer.h
Changes in v4:
- Remove unrelated block comment style fixes
Changes in v3:
- Add commit description
- Fix subject prefix to staging: media: atomisp:
Changes in v2:
- Fix block comment style (move closing */ to its own line)
- Merge split GP_TIMER_BASE declaration onto a single line
