Replace the open-coded implementation for reading the PCIe DSN with pci_get_dsn(). The original code used a for-loop that looped over each of the 8 bytes and copied them into a temporary buffer. pci_get_dsn() uses two calls to pci_read_config_dword, and correctly bitwise ORs them into a u64. Thus, we can simplify the snprintf significantly using %016llX on a u64 value. Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
