Seems OK.
The changes like this in ipoib, srp, sa_query, etc:
> - if (device->node_type == IB_NODE_SWITCH) {
> + if ((device->node_type & IB_NODE_SWITCH) == IB_NODE_SWITCH) {
seem rather silly. We've already checked that the device is an IB
device, so the change is pure obfuscation.
Also, why do
> - enum ib_node_type dev_type;
> + u8 dev_type;
it seems better to leave the field as an enum for better
documentation.
- R.
