Subject: [PATCH 3/6] riscv: ptrace: expand "LP" references to "branch landing pads" in uapi headers
Date: Fri,  3 Apr 2026 19:41:26 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <177526688403.878386.17724938405189602236.stgit@seppa> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <177526680875.878386.16551569883089050686.stgit@seppa>

Per Linus' comments about the unreadability of abbreviations such as
"LP", rename the RISC-V ptrace landing pad CFI macro names to be more
explicit.  This primarily involves expanding "LP" in the names to some
variant of "branch landing pad."
