So it complicates the source code for no gain. >> Return directly after a failed kasprintf() in map_paste_region() > > https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linuxppc-dev/patch/f46f04bc-613c-4e98-b602-4c5120556b09@xxxxxx/ Basically the same reasoning. And it also changes the function from having two return paths (success and error), to three. cheers
