9 * container_of - get pointer to enclosing structure
10 * @member_ptr: pointer to the structure member
11 * @containing_type: the type this member is within
12 * @member: the name of this member within the structure.
14 * Given a pointer to a member of a structure, this macro does pointer
15 * subtraction to return the pointer to the enclosing type.
17 * Example:
18 * struct foo {

22 * struct info {
23 * int some_other_field;
24 * struct foo my_foo;

69 * @member: the name of this member within the structure.
71 * Given a pointer to a member of a structure, this macro does pointer
72 * subtraction to return the pointer to the enclosing type.
74 * Example:
