[PATCH] staging: rtl8188eu: remove dead code in do-while conditional step

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The local variable 'bcmd_down' is always set to true almost immediately
before the do-while's condition is checked. As a result, !bcmd_down
evaluates to false which short circuits the logical AND operator meaning
that the second operand is never reached and is therefore dead code.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code")
