[PATCH][next][V2] bpf: remove redundant assignment to err

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

 



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

The variable err is assigned with the value -EINVAL that is never
read and it is re-assigned a new value later on.  The assignment is
redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

V2: reorder variables as recommended by Jakub Kicinski to keep in
    the networking code style.
