Hi Bart > From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@xxxxxxxxx> > Subject: [PATCH] fujitsu-laptop: remove superfluous NULL pointer checks > > This takes care of the following entries from Dan's list: > > drivers/platform/x86/fujitsu-laptop.c +327 set_lcd_level(13) warning: variable derefenced before check 'fujitsu' > drivers/platform/x86/fujitsu-laptop.c +358 set_lcd_level_alt(13) warning: variable derefenced before check 'fujitsu' I'd rather keep the test for a non-null fujitsu in there, but obviously it's kind of pointless doing it after the first dereference. Since this fixup overlaps with the one previously discussed with Julia I've taken the liberty of consolidating these - I'll send the result to the list as a separate email.
