    powerpc: Use octal numbers for file permissions · 57ad583f
    Russell Currey 提交于
    Symbolic macros are unintuitive and hard to read, whereas octal constants
    are much easier to interpret.  Replace macros for the basic permission
    flags (user/group/other read/write/execute) with numeric constants
    instead, across the whole powerpc tree.
    
    Introducing a significant number of changes across the tree for no runtime
    benefit isn't exactly desirable, but so long as these macros are still
    used in the tree people will keep sending patches that add them.  Not only
    are they hard to parse at a glance, there are multiple ways of coming to
    the same value (as you can see with 0444 and 0644 in this patch) which
    hurts readability.
