[PATCH] arch: metag: mm: hugetlbpage.c: Cleaning up inconsistent NULL checks

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

 



Cleaning up inconsistent NULL checks.
There is otherwise a risk of a possible null pointer dereference.

Was largely found by using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.
