I hate these patches... We're saying "these functions have sanity checks so let's pass nonsense values to them, it's fine." It makes the code harder to understand. There is no way for a human being to remember the complete list of functions with sanity checks and which don't have sanity checks. Markus has introduced quite a few bugs as well (people have so far managed to catch his bugs before they were committed). He so far has resisted any suggestion that he should manually review his patches before sending them. Btw do have a scripts/coccinelle/free/ifnullfree.cocci which removes checks before kfree, debugfs_remove, debugfs_remove_recursive, and usb_free_urb. regards, dan carpenter -- 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
