[PATCH 2/2] ath6kl: Remove bogus non-NULL pointer check

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

 



In ath6kl_cfg80211_add_key(), params is checked for non-NULL
but this pointer has been deferenced many times before this check. This
gives the following smatch warning. add_key() can never carry NULL as
params, remove this bogus check.

ath6kl_cfg80211_add_key(86) warn: variable dereferenced before check 'params'
