"phyinfo" can never be null here because we assigned it an address, so I removed both the assert and the second check inside the if statement. I removed the "phyinfo->phy_layer != NULL" check as well because that was asserted earlier. Walter Harms suggested I move the "phyinfo->phy_ref_count++;" outside the if condition for readability, so I have done that. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <error27@xxxxxxxxx> --- The original code increments phyinfo->phy_ref_count++ even if phyinfo->phy_layer->modemcmd is NULL. I kept it the same in my code, but maybe I should change that? v2: Removed an assert. Moved the increment outside the if condition. diff --git a/net/caif/cfcnfg.c b/net/caif/cfcnfg.c index df43f26..7c81974 100644 --- a/net/caif/cfcnfg.c +++ b/net/caif/cfcnfg.c @@ -308,19 +308,15 @@ cfcnfg_linkup_rsp(struct cflayer *layer, u8 channel_id, enum cfctrl_srv serv, caif_assert(cnfg != NULL); caif_assert(phyid != 0); phyinfo = &cnfg->phy_layers[phyid]; - caif_assert(phyinfo != NULL); caif_assert(phyinfo->id == phyid); caif_assert(phyinfo->phy_layer != NULL); caif_assert(phyinfo->phy_layer->id == phyid); - if (phyinfo != NULL && - phyinfo->phy_ref_count++ == 0 && - phyinfo->phy_layer != NULL && + phyinfo->phy_ref_count++; + if (phyinfo->phy_ref_count == 1 && phyinfo->phy_layer->modemcmd != NULL) { - caif_assert(phyinfo->phy_layer->id == phyid); phyinfo->phy_layer->modemcmd(phyinfo->phy_layer, _CAIF_MODEMCMD_PHYIF_USEFULL); - } adapt_layer->id = channel_id; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
