[PATCH 3/8] CIFS: One function call less in cifs_lookup() after error detection

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

 



From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sun, 20 Aug 2017 16:26:44 +0200

The kfree() function was called in up to two cases by the
cifs_lookup() function during error handling even if the passed variable
contained a null pointer.

* Adjust a jump target according to the Linux coding style convention.

* Delete an initialisation for the variable "full_path" at the beginning
  which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
