No, they aren't the same:
+ if (!child_nodes)
+ hpriv->nports = 1;
and
+ hpriv->nports = child_nodes ?: 1;
aren't equivalent. The equivalent implementation would be:
+ if (child_nodes)
+ hpriv->nports = child_nodes;
+ else
+ hpriv->nports = 1;
As I said in the patchlog, hpriv->nports is updated now only if
of_get_child_count() returns a valid number of the child nodes,
ports, which semantically is more correct. In the previous
implementation it was always set to the number of child nodes
no matter whether that value was correct or not.
Regarding the ternary operator with omitted operand. Well, it's not
that rare beast in the kernel:
$ grep -r "?:" kernel/ drivers/ mm/ fs/ block/ | wc -l
699
But if you insist in it being not that readable, I can replace it with
more bulky if-else statement. Do you?
