Subject: [RFC v1 5/6] pseries/papr-hvpipe: Refactor and simplify hvpipe_rtas_recv_msg()
Date: Tue,  7 Apr 2026 20:01:39 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51b10f1e82e5c9965902b34b082a4d2aa981ff8f.1775569027.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1775569027.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com>

Simplify hvpipe_rtas_recv_msg() by removing three levels of nesting...
if (!ret)
    if (buf)
	if (size < bytes_written)
... this refactoring of the funcion ensures bail out routines are
handled early, to simplify the function logic.
