Subject: [PATCH 2/4] btrfs: define the AUTO_K(V)FREE_PTR helper macros
Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2025 16:27:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251021142749.642956-3-mssola@mssola.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251021142749.642956-1-mssola@mssola.com>
These are two simple macros which ensure that a pointer is initialized
to NULL and with the proper cleanup attribute for it.
Suggested-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.cz>
