💖 ice_xlt_kb_get_acl(9) — the "make me an ACL key builder" girlie 💖

okay so this one lives in the Kernel API Manual (yes bestie, the Kernel API Manual, we're in the big leagues now 🎀) and honestly it's a tiny little function with a very specific job. let's get into it ✨

she takes one pointer and hands you back a pointer. clean. iconic. periodt 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure 🫶 that's it, that's the whole argument list, we love a low-maintenance function
