Re: [PATCH] Lock down drivers that can have io ports, io mem, irqs and dma changed

From: David Howells
Date: Tue Nov 29 2016 - 09:03:57 EST


How about the attached? Obviously it need extending to other drivers.

I thought that if I'm changing the module_param annotations anyway then it's
probably worth bunging in an extra parameter that notes what the parameter
modifies (ioport, iomem, etc.) for future reference, even if we don't store
it.
