From: Jesper Juhl Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2011 15:57:07 +0000 (+0200) Subject: NFS: Remove dead code from nfs_fs_mount() X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~7613^2~1526^2~19 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=160bc1604f8a33202578846c9a63e2a61105a4b7;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git NFS: Remove dead code from nfs_fs_mount() In fs/nfs/super.c::nfs_fs_mount() we test for a NULL 'data': ... if (data == NULL || mntfh == NULL) goto out_free_fh; ... and then further down in the function we test 'data' again: ... nfs_fscache_get_super_cookie( s, data ? data->fscache_uniq : NULL, NULL); ... this second check is just dead code since there is no way 'data' could possibly be NULL here. We also rely on a non-NULL 'data' in more than one location between these two tests, further proving the point that the second test is bogus. This patch removes the dead code.
