From fbe3d8942e8fd1e947e4d11a3e9e15675a1cac7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Jenkins Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2009 07:44:53 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] eeepc-laptop: Remove redundant NULL checks The acpi device callbacks add, start, remove, suspend and resume can never be called with a NULL acpi_device. Each callsite in acpi/scan.c has to dereference the device in order to get the ops structure, e.g. struct acpi_device *acpi_dev = to_acpi_device(dev); struct acpi_driver *acpi_drv = acpi_dev->driver; if (acpi_drv && acpi_drv->ops.suspend) return acpi_drv->ops.suspend(acpi_dev, state); Remove all checks for acpi_dev == NULL within these callbacks. Also remove the checks for acpi_driver_data(acpi_dev) == NULL. None of these checks could fail unless the driver does something strange (which none of them do), the acpi core did something terribly wrong, or we have a memory corruption issue. If this does happen then it's best to dereference the pointer and crash noisily.
