No worries.

Thanks for checking Betty.

It's hard for me to answer, I'm not the maintainer.
Maybe Roland has a preference.

I'd probably rename qib_devinfo to qib_info or qib_pdev_info
(adding an _ before info for consistency) and change the
macro definitions removing the unnecessary do {} while (0).

Single statement macros don't need to be:

#define macro(fmt, ...)					\
	do {						\
		single_stmt(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__);	\
	} while (0)

and are probably better as:

#define macro(fmt, ...)					\
	single_stmt(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)

cheers, Joe
