Subject: [patch -next] V4L: ivtv: remove unneeded NULL checks
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2010 12:12:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100723101232.GE26313@bicker> (raw)
In ivtvfb_callback_cleanup() we dereference "itv" before checking that
it's NULL. "itv" is assigned with container_of() which basically never
returns a NULL pointer so the check is pointless. I removed it, along
with a similar check in ivtvfb_callback_init().
I considered adding a check for v4l2_dev, but I looked at the code and I
don't think that can be NULL either.
