From b8a62f1ff0ccb18fdc25c6150d1cd394610f4753 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2015 21:09:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] tick: broadcast-hrtimer: Remove overly clever return value abuse The assignment of bc_moved in the conditional construct relies on the fact that in the case of hrtimer_start() invocation the return value is always 0. It took me a while to understand it. We want to get rid of the hrtimer_start() return value. Open code the logic which makes it readable as well.
