Subject: [GFS2] test for IS_ERR rather than 0
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=773adff8e983cba1f5844c3be3be224ca6645f26;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

[GFS2] test for IS_ERR rather than 0

The function gfs2_inode_lookup always returns either a valid pointer or a
value made with ERR_PTR, so its result should be tested with IS_ERR, not
with a test for 0.

The problem was found using the following semantic match.
