Commit f12482c9 ("ARM: 6974/1: pmu: refactor reservation") changed
{release,reserve}_pmu to take an enum arm_pmu_type as a parameter, but
inconsistently named the parameter `type' or `device'. It would be nice
if these were consistent.

This patch makes use of enum arm_pmu_type consistent, always using
'device' as this is more common in usage.

Thanks for fixing this. I'll take care of these two patches as fixes for
3.1.

This is confusing.  It's called arm_pmu_TYPE, and it's referred to as a
type in printks.  Yet you're renaming the variable to device.  That just
adds to the problem.

What is it, a type number or a device number?

If it's a device number, then the printks also need fixing, and maybe the
enumerated type name too.

Yes, we should uniformly use type instead of device. The only reason device
is kicking around is because the functions used to take a platform_device
rather than an arm_pmu_type.

Once I've got an updated patch from Mark, I'll update my fixes branch and
send a pull request to you Russell (I have a handful of other fixes that
have been on the list).

Cheers,

Will
