Hello there,

[linux-4.2-rc1/drivers/staging/wilc1000/linux_wlan.c:1874]: (style) A pointer can not be negative so it is either pointless or an error to check if it is.

Source code is

     if (wilc_mac_thread < 0) {

but

struct task_struct *wilc_mac_thread;

Regards

David Binderman

Hello David.

Thanks for your detail review.
The code is wrong and will be removed because of unused code later.

Regards.
Johnny.
