Subject: Staging: dst: correct error-handling code
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d0e0507ad6ccbeaad1f6bfe5923bdc5110df8636;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

Staging: dst: correct error-handling code

dst_state_alloc returns an ERR_PTR value in an error case instead of NULL.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@match exists@
expression x, E;
statement S1, S2;
@@

x = dst_state_alloc(...)
... when != x = E
(
*  if (x == NULL || ...) S1 else S2
|
*  if (x == NULL && ...) S1 else S2
)
// </smpl>
