The next patch reworks how the IPA packet status structure is
interpreted. This patch does some preparatory work, to make it
easier to see the effect of that change:
- Change a few functions that access fields in a IPA packet status
structure to store field values in local variables with names
related to the field.
- Pass a void pointer rather than an (equivalent) status pointer
to two functions called by ipa_endpoint_status_parse().
- Use "rule" rather than "val" as the name of a variable that
holds a routing rule ID.
- Consistently use "IPA packet status" rather than "status
element" when referring to this data structure.

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.
