[PATCH -next] staging: bcm2708_vchiq: fix return value check in vchiq_init_state()

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

 



From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@xxxxxxxxxx>

In case of error, the function kthread_create() returns ERR_PTR() and
never returns NULL. The NULL test in the return value check should be
replaced with IS_ERR().
