From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Thu, 3 May 2012 18:22:00 +0000 (+0200) Subject: net/niu: remove one superfluous dma mask check X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f19250883fe09dd2b6b5f818d84874837948c546;p=linux-beck.git net/niu: remove one superfluous dma mask check The idea here seems to be to get a 44bit DMA mask working and if this fails it should fallback to a 32bit DMA mask. The dma_mask variable is assigned once to 44bit and never updated. pci_set_dma_mask() and pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() are both implemented as functions so there is no evil macro which might update dma_mask. Looking at the assembly, I see a call to dma_set_mask() followed by dma_supported() and then a jump passed the second dma_set_mask(). The only way to get to second dma_set_mask() call is by an error code in the first one. So I hereby remove the check since it looks superfluous. Please ignore the path if there is black magic involved. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Signed-off-by: David S.
