[PATCH 2/3] UBI: wl: Rename cancel flag to shutdown

Richard Weinberger richard at nod.at
Mon Sep 22 01:45:35 PDT 2014


It confused me more than once that the cancel flag of the
work function does not indicate the cancellation of a single work.
In fact it indicates the WL sub-system shutdown and therefore
worker functions have to free their wl_entries too.
That's why you cannot cancel a single work, you can only shutdown
all works.
