From debc251b602fa4795c00c0aa82caa28cebc619ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2009 10:22:53 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN: move a dereference below a NULL test In each case, if the NULL test is necessary, then the dereference should be moved below the NULL test. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @@ type T; expression E; identifier i,fld; statement S; @@ - T i = E->fld; + T i; ... when != E when != i if (E == NULL) S + i = E->fld; // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: David S.
