This change is part of a tree wide cleanup. drivers/atm status is listed as Maintained in MAINTAINERS so changes like this should be ok. Should drivers/atm status be changed?

What's the purpose of the "clean up"? Why is it making the code better? This is a quote from your change: - PRINTK (KERN_NOTICE, "debug bitmap is %hx", debug &= DBG_MASK); + PRINTK (KERN_NOTICE, "debug bitmap is %x", debug &= DBG_MASK); Are you sure that the use of %hx is the worst part of that line? > drivers/atm status is listed as Maintained in MAINTAINERS so changes > like this should be ok. > > Should drivers/atm status be changed? Up to Chas, but AFAIU we're probably only a few years away from ATM as a whole walking into the light. So IMHO "Obsolete" would be justified.

In this case, it means this bit of code is compliant with the %h checker in checkpatch. why you are seeing this change for %hx and not the horrible debug &= or the old PRINTK macro is because the change was mechanical. leveraging the clang build and a special fixit for %h, an allyesconfig for x86_64 cleans this problem from most of the tree in about an hour. atm/ was just one of the places it hit, there are about 100 more. If you want the debug &= fixed, i can do that. The macro is a treewide problem and i can add that to the treewide cleanups i am planning.

No, the opposite of that. I would like to see fewer patches touching prehistoric code for little to no gain :( > The macro is a treewide problem and i can add that to the treewide cleanups i am planning.
