From: Julia Lawall <julia.law...@lip6.fr> Delete unnecessary local variable whose value is always 0 and that hides the fact that the result is always 0.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression ret; expression e; position p; @@ -ret = 0; ... when != ret = e return - ret + 0 ; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia.law...@lip6.fr> --- Alternatively, is an error code wanted under the if? drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/driver.c | 7 ++----- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/driver.c b/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/driver.c index 9c34d2f..901a534 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/driver.c +++ b/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/driver.c @@ -500,26 +500,23 @@ int i2400m_pm_notifier(struct notifier_block *notifier, */ int i2400m_pre_reset(struct i2400m *i2400m) { - int result; struct device *dev = i2400m_dev(i2400m); d_fnstart(3, dev, "(i2400m %p)\n", i2400m); d_printf(1, dev, "pre-reset shut down\n"); - result = 0; mutex_lock(&i2400m->init_mutex); if (i2400m->updown) { netif_tx_disable(i2400m->wimax_dev.net_dev); __i2400m_dev_stop(i2400m); - result = 0; /* down't set updown to zero -- this way * post_reset can restore properly */ } mutex_unlock(&i2400m->init_mutex); if (i2400m->bus_release) i2400m->bus_release(i2400m); - d_fnend(3, dev, "(i2400m %p) = %d\n", i2400m, result); - return result; + d_fnend(3, dev, "(i2400m %p) = %d\n", i2400m, 0); + return 0; } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(i2400m_pre_reset); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
