Subject: [PATCH v2 04/13] mm/sparse: rename and cleanup sparse_init_nid()
Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2026 21:58:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260921-b4-sparsemem_cleanups-v2-4-54d81d65e125@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260921-b4-sparsemem_cleanups-v2-0-54d81d65e125@kernel.org>
Let's rename it to "sparse_metadata_init_nid", avoid the "pnum" terminology
and drop the function comment. Further, rename the "map" variable to
"mem_map" for consistency with other functions.
