From 62aa528e0299ffef8e138d9d92d13e631d06c5ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julien Brunel Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2008 16:22:22 -0500 Subject: 9p: use an IS_ERR test rather than a NULL test In case of error, the function p9_client_walk returns an ERR pointer, but never returns a NULL pointer. So a NULL test that comes after an IS_ERR test should be deleted. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @match_bad_null_test@ expression x, E; statement S1,S2; @@ x = p9_client_walk(...) ... when != x = E * if (x != NULL) S1 else S2 // Signed-off-by: Julien Brunel Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton --- fs/9p/vfs_inode.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'fs') diff --git a/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c b/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c index c95295c6504..e83aa5ebe86 100644 --- a/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c +++ b/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c @@ -626,8 +626,7 @@ static struct dentry *v9fs_vfs_lookup(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry, return NULL; error: - if (fid) - p9_client_clunk(fid); + p9_client_clunk(fid); return ERR_PTR(result); } -- cgit v1.2.3
