Your Environment

Describe the Issue

The Snyk console hosted by Linux Foundation at https://security.lfx.linuxfoundation.org/#/a092M00001IkV6eQAF/non-inclusive-language has flagged usage of terms which may alienate developers.

Additional context

The term "insane" is reported by Snyk but no longer exists in the code.

The term "whitehat" is only in a URL, and the URL points to Facebook, which is now an obsolete reference and needs to be fixed anyway.

New developments:

  1. The S1AP code needs to reflect that I2C "slave" is official language from specification and just changing it is not a solution. We should wait for the the spec to change.
  2. We should have a policy to prevent new adoption of non-inclusive language. This can be based on https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=49decddd39e5f6132ccd7d9fdc3d7c470b0061bb or https://docs.zephyrproject.org/3.1.0/hardware/peripherals/i2c.html . It can be on the wiki.
