From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2017 15:30:15 +0100 * Return directly after a call of the function "address_ok" failed in a case block. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. * Delete two error code assignments which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
