Subject: xen-blkback: prefer xenbus_scanf() over xenbus_gather()
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6694389af9be4d1eb8d3313788a902f0590fb8c2;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

xen-blkback: prefer xenbus_scanf() over xenbus_gather()

... for single items being collected: It is more typesafe (as the
compiler can check format string and to-be-written-to variable match)
and requires one less parameter to be passed.
