In the earlier version, checkpatch.pl gave the following check, which was incorrect: CHECK: Comparison to NULL could be written "!rx_p" + if (*rx_p == NULL) { Signed-off-by: Bhaktipriya Shridhar Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron --- diff --git a/drivers/staging/iio/accel/sca3000_ring.c b/drivers/staging/iio/accel/sca3000_ring.c index 20b878d35ea2..1920dc60cf3d 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/iio/accel/sca3000_ring.c +++ b/drivers/staging/iio/accel/sca3000_ring.c @@ -48,7 +48,7 @@ static int sca3000_read_data(struct sca3000_state *st, } }; *rx_p = kmalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL); - if (*rx_p == NULL) { + if (!*rx_p) { ret = -ENOMEM; goto error_ret; }
