Hi Jonathan,

Here it goes the first round of what we discussed in [1] about
annotating .masklength as __private. Patches should be fairly simple so
hopefully I did not messed up much...

Note that in core, there's one place where we're still directly writing
into .masklength (when it's effectively set). The plan is then to
directly use ACCESS_PRIVATE() in there in the same patch where we mark
.masklength as __private.

Makes sense. Series looks good to me, but I'll not pick it up just yet.
I've tagged a like second 6.11 pull request, so this is probably 6.12 material
unless things go particularly smoothly and Greg takes an additional last
minute one as there is one set waiting for a fix that is in char-misc
but not yet iio-togreg.

Jonathan

Yeah, looks sane to me. Advantage of going in 6.12 is that (likely) we'' get all
the conversions done.
