(Actually it is your code just without the braces.)
what is about differentiating between day and month ?
if (days < 1 || days > 31) {
cifs_dbg(VFS, "illegal day: %d\n", days);
days = (days < 1) ? 1 : 31 ;
}
if ( month < 1 || month > 12) {
cifs_dbg(VFS, "illegal month %d\n", month);
month = (month < 1) ? 1 : 12 ;
}
this way you have a obvious error handling for day and month.
I still like my first version even when day/month are recalculated every
time the flow is very linear only the error message is a deviation.
(Given that ?: makes it not easy to digest)
