Remove double checks, and move the call to printk to the first check. Also adds KERN_WARNING to printk. The simplified version of the coccinelle semantic patch that fixes this issue is as follows: // <smpl> @@ expression E; identifier pr; expression list es; @@ while(...){ ... - if (E) break; + if (E){ + pr(es); + break; + } ... } - if(E) pr(es); // </smpl> Tested by compilation only.
