[PATCH] net/sched: remove redundant null check on head

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

head is previously null checked and so the 2nd null check on head
is redundant and therefore can be removed.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1399505 ("Logically dead code")
