[PATCH] mm: Unsigned 'nr_pages' always larger than zero

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

 



With the help of unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci. Unsigned 'nr_pages"'
compare with zero. And __get_user_pages_locked will return an long value.

The patch use a new local variable to store the return value of
__get_user_pages_locked(). Then use it to compare with zero.
