From fee61c47d15270bdea699a8a3dd867f0825c3541 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Whitcroft Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:28:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: return is not a function -- parentheses for casts are ok too Casts require parentheses so it is possible to have something like this: return (int)(*a); This miss trips the complexity function. Ensure that the two separate parenthesised sections are not coelesced.
