okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual, this one's called mei_cl_irq_read and honestly? she's a whole vibe. β¨
The name lowkey says it all: this is the function that handles the client read-related operations from the interrupt thread context β specifically the request for flow control credits. that's the whole assignment, no cap. π«Ά

list_head *cmpl_list );
three arguments, one int coming back at you. iconic signature behavior fr fr. π
π ARGUMENTS π
