There is no need to explicitly allocate, populate and free some memory just to pass a workqueue name to 'create_singlethread_workqueue()'. This macro can do all this for us, so keep the code simple. Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> --- A similar patch has also been sent. It was replacing the kmalloc/strcpy/ strcat with a kasprintf. Updating 'create_singlethread_workqueue' gives an even more elegant solution. --- drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/health.c | 9 +-------- 1 file changed, 2 insertion(+), 8 deletions(-)
