From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> d_splice_alias() does the right thing when given ERR_PTR(-E...) for inode. No need for gotos, multiple returns, etc. in there. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Gao Xiang <gaoxiang25@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Gao Xiang <gaoxiang25@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, Frankly, I think it is a straight-forward cleanup by Al enough to be submitted to Linux 4.20 in constant to other pending fixes found in the process of EROFS productization these days, which I need more time to think over and fix formally to the community. p.s. I have no idea whether this patch has been already queued up in Al's fs tree for 4.20... :'( +Cc Greg / the staging mailing list as well. Or please ignore this email...
