Yeah, that patch is pretty borked. This should probably be sm like: >From f3a7758bb53cc776820656c6ac66b13fb8ed9022 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KirtiRamchandani <kirtar15502@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2023 10:49:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] affs: handle errors in affs_xrename() Fix a bug in the affs_xrename() function. The affs_xrename() function in the AFFS filesystem has a bug that can cause the retval variable to be overwritten before it is used. Specifically, the function assigns retval a value in two separate code blocks, but then only checks its value in one of those blocks. This commit fixes the bug by ensuring that retval is properly checked in both code blocks.
