From: Cyrill Gorcunov Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2011 16:06:25 +0000 (+0400) Subject: x86, perf: P4 PMU - Fix typos in comments and style cleanup X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f53173e47dee5f7514d264796bec58d43ed0f67f;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git x86, perf: P4 PMU - Fix typos in comments and style cleanup This patch: - fixes typos in comments and clarifies the text - renames obscure p4_event_alias::original and ::alter members to ::original and ::alternative as appropriate - drops parenthesis from the return of p4_get_alias_event() No functional changes.
