From: Eric Sandeen Date: Mon, 4 Nov 2013 14:58:26 +0000 (-0500) Subject: ext4: remove unreachable code in ext4_can_extents_be_merged() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=da0169b3b9a460ecbb571dad6123fe3735b148d1;p=linux-beck.git ext4: remove unreachable code in ext4_can_extents_be_merged() Commit ec22ba8e ("ext4: disable merging of uninitialized extents") ensured that if either extent under consideration is uninit, we decline to merge, and immediately return. But right after that test, we test again for an uninit extent; we can never hit this. So just remove the impossible test and associated variable.
