[PATCH v2 06/17] IB/mlx4: Delete an unnecessary check before kfree() in free_pv_object()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri, 21 Apr 2017 13:50:38 +0200

The script "checkpatch.pl" pointed information out like the following.

WARNING: kfree(NULL) is safe and this check is probably not required

Thus fix the affected source code place.
