Subject: [PATCH v7 03/49] audit: no need to walk list in audit_inode if name is NULL
Date: Mon,  1 Oct 2012 20:16:12 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1349137018-21948-4-git-send-email-jlayton@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1349137018-21948-1-git-send-email-jlayton@redhat.com>

If name is NULL then the condition in the loop will never be true. Also,
with this change, we can eliminate the check for n->name == NULL since
the equivalence check will never be true if it is.
