Subject: [Patch] Ignored return value in drivers/mtd/chips/sharp.c
Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2006 22:07:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1150920428.24106.1.camel@alice> (raw)

hi,

coverity (id #10) spotted that we never reach the return ret; statement,
since ret never gets assigned a value except the 0 at
initialisation. I assume it was meant to hold the result
of sharp_write_oneword().
