Subject: [PATCH 5/5] netfilter: xt_TEE: Clean up tests if NULL returned on failure
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2017 14:14:39 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1490085879-1827-6-git-send-email-singhalsimran0@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1490085879-1827-1-git-send-email-singhalsimran0@gmail.com>

Some functions like kmalloc/kzalloc return NULL on failure. When NULL
represents failure, !x is commonly used.

This was done using Coccinelle:
@@
expression *e;
identifier l1;
@@
e = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\|devm_kzalloc\)(...);
...
- e == NULL
+ !e
