From 0d46c0079a8eeed25105fa374f79862842ee80c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesper Juhl Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2007 22:17:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] USB: Remove pointless conditional in drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c::edge_shutdown() Coverity scan found (CID: 1708) this in drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c::edge_shutdown() : ... 2797 for (i=0; i < serial->num_ports; ++i) { 2798 edge_port = usb_get_serial_port_data(serial->port[i]); 2799 edge_remove_sysfs_attrs(edge_port->port); 2800 if (edge_port) { 2801 edge_buf_free(edge_port->ep_out_buf); 2802 kfree(edge_port); 2803 } 2804 usb_set_serial_port_data(serial->port[i], NULL); 2805 } ... It's complaining that we dereference 'edge_port' in line 2799 which makes the test of that pointer against NULL in 2800 pointless, since if edge_port was actually NULL we'd have crashed already before reaching line 2800. Reading the edge_open() function it seems to me that the pointer returned by usb_get_serial_port_data(serial->port[i]) and stored in 'edge_port' can never actually be NULL here, so the test is entirely superfluous (even if it could be NULL it would be pointless here, ignoring the then possible crash in that case, since both edge_buf_free() and kfree() can handle being passed NULL pointers. This patch removes the pointless conditional (and also makes a few tiny style corrections now that I was in the area anyway).
