Subject: [PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: use !psta instead of comparison to NULL
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 04:51:19 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260726232119.6392-1-linkrinku13@gmail.com> (raw)
The psta pointer was compared against NULL using an explicit equality
check. The kernel coding style prefers testing a pointer directly, so
use !psta instead. This also silences a checkpatch CHECK:
CHECK: Comparison to NULL could be written "!psta"
No functional change.
