Commit49e4b84333(ACPI: Use correct IRQ when uninstalling ACPI interrupt handler) brings a new definition for invalid ACPI IRQ, i.e. INVALID_ACPI_IRQ, which is defined to 0xffffffff (or -1 for unsigned value). Get rid of a former one, which was brought in by commit2c0a6894df(x86, ACPI, irq: Enhance error handling in function acpi_register_gsi()), in favour of latter. To clarify the rationale of changing from INT_MIN to ((unsigned)-1) definition consider the following: - IRQ 0 is valid one in hardware, so, better not to use it everywhere (Linux uses 0 as NO IRQ, though it's another story) - INT_MIN splits the range into two, while 0xffffffff reserves only the last item - when type casting is done in most cases 0xff, 0xffff is naturally used as a marker of invalid HW IRQ: for example PCI INT line 0xff means no IRQ assigned by BIOS Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
