Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] thermal: core: Remove dead code from two functions
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2026 17:37:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3950489.kQq0lBPeGt@rafael.j.wysocki> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2354798.iZASKD2KPV@rafael.j.wysocki>
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Since thermal_register_governor() is only called by
thermal_register_governors() which runs before clearing
thermal_class_unavailable, thermal_tz_list is guaranteed to be
empty when it runs, so the code walking that list in it is
effectively dead.
The same observation applies to the code walking thermal_tz_list
in thermal_unregister_governor() which is also called only if
thermal_class_unavailable hasn't been cleared.
Remove the dead code from both functions mentioned above and rearrange
thermal_register_governor() to reduce indentation level.
No intentional functional impact.
