[PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary parentheses

[PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary parentheses

[Eugene Mavick]

Remove unnecessary parentheses to clear checkpatch.pl warnings

Example of fixed warnings:
CHECK: Unnecessary parentheses around dvobj->cam_cache[id]
CHECK: Unnecessary parentheses around 'val != 0xfe'

Checkpatch warnings regarding line length above 100 columns on modified
lines were also fixed

[PATCH v2] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary parentheses

[Eugene Mavick]

Remove unnecessary parentheses to clear checkpatch.pl warnings

Example of fixed warnings:
CHECK: Unnecessary parentheses around dvobj->cam_cache[id]
CHECK: Unnecessary parentheses around 'val != 0xfe'

Checkpatch warnings regarding line length above 100 columns on modified
lines were also fixed

Signed-off-by: Eugene Mavick <mavick4022@gmail.com>
---
V1->V2:
Fixed following checkpatch warnings on modified lines:
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis(line 1114, 1249)
CHECK: Logical continuations should be on the previous line(line 1251)

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260530031621.443015-1-mavick4022@gmail.com/

Just leave this one as-is.  (staging rules).  We deliberately silenced
this checkpatch warning so it's weird for checkpatch to complain.
Same for the other conditions.

changes?

No, leave these.  It's a staging specific rule.  I even modified
checkpatch to not warn about these so I'm not sure how you are seeing
them.  I just tested again and checkpatch doesn't warn...

[PATCH v4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary parentheses

[Eugene Mavick]

Remove unnecessary parentheses to clear checkpatch.pl warnings

Example of fixed warnings:
CHECK: Unnecessary parentheses around dvobj->cam_cache[id]

Signed-off-by: Eugene Mavick <m@mavick.dev>
---

V1->V2:
Fixed following checkpatch warnings on modified lines:
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis(line 1114, 1249)
CHECK: Logical continuations should be on the previous line(line 1251)

V2->V3:
Removed comparison-statement-parentheses-removals(CSPR) per Dan Carpenter's review:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ah1s_Eveaka0SHvQ@stanley.mountain/

V3->V4:
Removed overlooked CSPR;
Removed misleading fixed-warning-example in commit message suggesting
CSPR were still present

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260530031621.443015-1-mavick4022@gmail.com/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260531061022.573089-1-mavick4022@gmail.com/

When I'm reviewing patches one thing that I'm checking is that if
people deliberately tries to slip something unexpected into the patch.
I created a script to help me strip away many of the common staging
changes so I can focus on the interesting stuff.

https://github.com/error27/rename_rev

This is v4 of this patch and so at this point what I really want is for
my script to say there is nothing unexpected at all.  Almost everything
here is related to the checkpatch warning about &(foo->bar).  Some of
the other changes are good, but at this point, I just want to get
something we can apply.  Do the other changes in a different patch.

Here is the output from my script that I want removed.

[PATCH v5] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary parentheses

[Eugene Mavick]

Remove unnecessary parantheses around &(foo->bar) type statements to
improve code readability

Signed-off-by: Eugene Mavick <m@mavick.dev>
---

V1->V2:
Fixed following checkpatch warnings on modified lines:
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis(line 1114, 1249)
CHECK: Logical continuations should be on the previous line(line 1251)

V2->V3:
Removed comparison-statement-parentheses-removals(CSPR) per Dan Carpenter's review:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ah1s_Eveaka0SHvQ@stanley.mountain/

V3->V4:
Removed overlooked CSPR;
Removed misleading fixed-warning-example in commit message suggesting
CSPR were still present

V4-V5:
Remove none &(foo->bar) type statement parantheses removal

From my perspective I'm seeing this patch twice in a day...  Just wait
a bit...  Remove this part as well.

        if ((pmlmepriv->timeBcnInfoChkStart != 0) && (jiffies_to_msecs(jiffies - pmlmepriv->timeBcnInfoChkStart) <= DISCONNECT_BY_CHK_BCN_FAIL_OBSERV_PERIOD_IN_MS)

                pmlmepriv->timeBcnInfoChkStart = 0;
                pmlmepriv->NumOfBcnInfoChkFail = 0;
                return _FAIL;

[PATCH v6] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary parentheses

[Eugene Mavick]

Remove unnecessary parantheses around &(foo->bar) type statements to
improve code readability

Signed-off-by: Eugene Mavick <m@mavick.dev>
---

V1->V2:
Fixed following checkpatch warnings on modified lines:
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis(line 1114, 1249)
CHECK: Logical continuations should be on the previous line(line 1251)

V2->V3:
Removed comparison-statement-parentheses-removals(CSPR) per Dan Carpenter's review:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ah1s_Eveaka0SHvQ@stanley.mountain/

V3->V4:
Removed overlooked CSPR;
Removed misleading fixed-warning-example in commit message suggesting
CSPR were still present

V4->V5:
Remove none &(foo->bar) type statement parantheses removal

V5->V6:
Remove overlooked none &(foo->bar) type statement parantheses removal 

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260530031621.443015-1-mavick4022@gmail.com/
