[PATCH] iommu: simplify list initialization in iommu_create_device_direct_mappings()
Posted by Can Peng 1 month, 4 weeks ago
Use LIST_HEAD() to declare and initialize the 'mappings' list head in
iommu_create_device_direct_mappings() instead of separate declaration and
INIT_LIST_HEAD(). This simplifies the code by combining declaration and
initialization into a single idiomatic form, improving readability without
changing functionality.

How do you think about to repeat the mentioned transformation approach for the implementation
of the function “iommu_group_show_resv_regions”?
