Smatch complains about this code: drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/core.c:335 brcmf_rx_hdrpull() error: we previously assumed '*ifp' could be null (see line 333) The problem is that we recently changed these from "ifp" to "*ifp" but there was one that we didn't update. - if (ret || !ifp || !ifp->ndev) { + if (ret || !(*ifp) || !(*ifp)->ndev) { if (ret != -ENODATA && ifp) ^^^ - ifp->stats.rx_errors++; + (*ifp)->stats.rx_errors++; I have updated it to *ifp as well. We always call this function is a non-NULL "ifp" pointer, btw.
