okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and the star of the show is idpf_ptp_is_mb_msg. yes it's a mouthful. no you don't have to say it out loud. it's giving "tiny helper function with main character energy" and honestly? we stan 💅

bool idpf_ptp_is_mb_msg (u32 op );

like, that's it. that's the whole signature. one argument, one bool coming back atcha 🎀

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• op — the virtchnl opcode. that's the thing you're handing over so it can get checked 💌
