Right.

If you set repeat to 1 to make the driver clear the is_indefinite
flag. So when the repeat number decreases to 0, it will stop.

Pavel wanted "echo none > trigger" to clear the pattern. So I am fine
remove the 'pattern_clear' operation in this function.

But checkpatch will complain the 'else' statement is redundant, maybe
add some comments here to make things clear?

Some drivers don't care about the repeat, and it will always repeat
indefinitely. So no matter what values set from userspace, driver can
set it to 0.

Can you set repeat to 1 to represent no-repeat and set to 0 to
represent repeat-forever?

Hmmm, so we can remove the 'pattern_get' interface and always trust
data->patterns.
