Yeah, that's what I meant, no callers of dx_show_entries() even with debug
enabled.
In regards to the coding style of if conditionals, I just followed the coding
style of most places in the code, I also changed some of the if conditionals to
match the rest of the code. i.e.:
if(!(bh = ext4_bread())) {
do_something();
}
if you take a look at the code, most if conditionals regarding the calls to
ext4_bread() are in the above coding style. I just followed it, but, I'm not
against change that to another one, but agree the above looks better and save
some code lines
