From e343678ee990912a132e94236fe028efe78696b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thorsten Blum Date: Sun, 1 Sep 2024 18:19:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] nfs: Remove unnecessary NULL check before kfree() Since kfree() already checks if its argument is NULL, an additional check before calling kfree() is unnecessary and can be removed. Remove it and thus also the following Coccinelle/coccicheck warning reported by ifnullfree.cocci: WARNING: NULL check before some freeing functions is not needed Reviewed-by: Benjamin Coddington Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker --- fs/nfs/read.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/nfs/read.c b/fs/nfs/read.c index a6103333b666..81bd1b9aba17 100644 --- a/fs/nfs/read.c +++ b/fs/nfs/read.c @@ -48,8 +48,7 @@ static struct nfs_pgio_header *nfs_readhdr_alloc(void) static void nfs_readhdr_free(struct nfs_pgio_header *rhdr) { - if (rhdr->res.scratch != NULL) - kfree(rhdr->res.scratch); + kfree(rhdr->res.scratch); kmem_cache_free(nfs_rdata_cachep, rhdr); }
