[patch] staging: lustre: silence a static checker warning

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

 



Static checkers warn that if  cfs_cpt_table_print() returns an error
other than -EFBIG, then it would lead to a double free.  This is true
but cfs_cpt_table_print() only returns -EFBIG on error so it also won't
happen in real life.
