From: John Linville Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2015 15:42:25 +0000 (-0400) Subject: wireless: remove superfluous if statement in regulatory code X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=841b351cf98e0b4ef25f6459d35251e63c0a7a49;p=linux-beck.git wireless: remove superfluous if statement in regulatory code Commit eeca9fce1d71 ('cfg80211: Schedule timeout for all CRDA calls') left behind a superfluous check after it removed some earlier code. In reg_process_hint, the test of "treatment == REG_REQ_IGNORE || treatment == REG_REQ_ALREADY_SET" is superfluous because the code in the if-then branch is identical to the code after the if statement. Coverity CID #1295939 I also removed the unnecessary assignment of treatment in this case, and added a comment reminding any future patch authors to ensure that treatment is properly assigned before it is used after the switch.
