Subject: [PATCH 03/14] xen: events: simplify comment
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2011 16:08:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299773295-348-3-git-send-email-ian.campbell@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1299773279.17339.813.camel@zakaz.uk.xensource.com>
It is never valid assume any particular relationship between a Xen
PIRQ number and and Linux IRQ number so there is no need to hedge when
saying so.
