Subject: [PATCH] coverity: fs/locks.c flp null check
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7eaae2828dadae3abde7f77734c874d4b74b313a;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] coverity: fs/locks.c flp null check

We're dereferencing `flp' and then we're testing it for NULLness.

Either the compiler accidentally saved us or the existing null-pointer checdk
is redundant.

This defect was found automatically by Coverity Prevent, a static analysis tool.
