Make the following minor changes which were reported by colleagues
while reviewing this code:
- Remove the parentheses from around the LOOP_DEFAULT_HW_Q_DEPTH
definition since these are superfluous.
- Accept other number formats than decimal, e.g. hexadecimal.
- Do not set hw_queue_depth to an out-of-range value, even if that value
won't be used.
- Use the LOOP_DEFAULT_HW_Q_DEPTH macro in the kernel module parameter
description to prevent that the description gets out of sync.
This patch has been tested as follows:
# modprobe -r loop
# modprobe loop hw_queue_depth=-1
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'loop': Invalid argument
# modprobe loop hw_queue_depth=0
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'loop': Invalid argument
# modprobe loop hw_queue_depth=1; cat /sys/module/loop/parameters/hw_queue_depth
1
# modprobe -r loop; modprobe loop; cat /sys/module/loop/parameters/hw_queue_depth hw_queue_depth=0x10
16
# modprobe -r loop; modprobe loop; cat /sys/module/loop/parameters/hw_queue_depth hw_queue_depth=128
128
# modprobe -r loop; modprobe loop hw_queue_depth=129; cat /sys/module/loop/parameters/hw_queue_depth
129
# modprobe -r loop; modprobe loop hw_queue_depth=$((1<<32))
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'loop': Numerical result out of range
