Hello Doug,

As we all know there are several static analysis tools available for
the Linux
kernel and these tools are valuable. I'm referring to increasing the
gcc
warning level (W=1), sparse and smatch. It is helpful to analyze new
code with
these tools before submitting a patch. These tools are most useful if
existing
code is clean. Hence this patch series that significantly reduces the
number
of complaints reported by static analysis tools. Please consider this
patch
series for kernel v4.15.

The series looks pretty good Bart.  I'd like some Intel eyes on the
hfi1 changes, and I'd like some people to report back that the rcu
changes in their code are good, and the Cc: Signed-off-by: mistakes in
the hns_roce parts needs fixed.  Then I'll be ready to take it.  Thanks
for all the work here.

Thanks for the hard work here Bart! I know all of us driver maintainers appreciate your helping to clean up our mess :) and you might have even uncovered a bug in our driver so double thanks!

The only problem is the one patch isn't needed because I just submitted a patch last week for the same thing and Doug has already pulled it into his for-next.
