pgprot_val() likes an empty operation, and all three checking statements are related with oldprot, so only check once is enough, the reason is: - if both "oldprot == pgprot_noncached(oldprot)" and "oldprot == pgprot_writecombine(oldprot)" are satisfied. - So "pgprot_noncached(oldprot) == pgprot_writecombine(oldprot)", too. - So as the result, it is still equal to check once (for pgprot_device can get the same result). Then can return directly.
