Subject: [PATCH v4] wifi: iwlegacy: 3945-rs: remove redundant pointer check in il3945_rs_tx_status() and il3945_rs_get_rate()
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 01:11:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260111171118.203249-1-islituo@gmail.com> (raw)

The variable il_sta passed into these two functions cannot be NULL, so
remove the related null checks.

Signed-off-by: Tuo Li <islituo@gmail.com>

v4:
* Remove the redundant NULL check instead of using WARN_ON_ONCE(), and
  update the subject accordingly.
  Thanks to Stanislaw Gruszka for helpful advice.
v3:
* Replace plain NULL check with WARN_ON_ONCE() and update subject to better
  reflect defensive nature of the check.
  Thanks to Johannes Berg and Stanislaw Gruszka for helpful advice.
v2:
* Return early for uninitialized STA il data and align D_RATE messages with
  il3945_rs_tx_status(). Add a wifi: prefix to the patch title.
  Thanks to Stanislaw Gruszka for the helpful advice.
