Subject: [patch 1/2] ACPI / debugger: remove some unneeded conditions
Date: Thu, 24 Dec 2015 10:23:03 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151224072303.GA29642@mwanda> (raw)
"count" is unsigned so checking for less than zero here causes a static
checker warning. And really it's better to let the access_ok() check
fail if the user passes in a NULL "buf" pointer because -EFAULT is the
correct error code.
