From e2c5aaa5fd3b4038061adf878254cceb30e41ddd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Dowad Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 20:14:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mips: copy_thread(): rename 'arg' argument to 'kthread_arg' The 'arg' argument to copy_thread() is only ever used when forking a new kernel thread. Hence, rename it to 'kthread_arg' for clarity (and consistency with do_fork() and other arch-specific implementations of copy_thread()).
