The extra pair of parantheses is not needed and causes clang to generate the following warning: drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c:1776:11: error: equality comparison with extraneous parentheses [-Werror,-Wparentheses-equality] if ((cmd == DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD)) { ~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c:1776:11: note: remove extraneous parentheses around the comparison to silence this warning if ((cmd == DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD)) { ~ ^ ~ drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c:1776:11: note: use '=' to turn this equality comparison into an assignment if ((cmd == DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD)) { ^~ = Also remove another double parentheses that don't cause a warning.
