[PATCH][V2] ocfs2: remove deadcode on variable tmp_oh check

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

 



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

At the end of ocfs2_inode_lock_tracker tmp_oh is true because an
earlier check on tmp_oh being false returns out of the function.
Since tmp_oh is true, the function will always return 1 so remove
the redundant check and return of 0.

Also update description in comment, return -EINVAL and not -1.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code")

V2: Fix typo of function name in description.
    Update description in comment as noted by Joseph Qi
