Hi,

I'm seeing this:

	WARNING: else is not generally useful after a break or return
	#1220: FILE: net/rxrpc/sendmsg.c:301:
	+               return -ENOMEM;
	+       } else {

on:

	if (call->send_queue) {
		tq->qbase = call->send_top + 1;
		call->send_queue->next = tq;
		call->send_queue = tq;
	} else if (WARN_ON(call->tx_queue)) {
		kfree(tq);
		return -ENOMEM;
	} else {
		tq->qbase = 0;
		call->tx_qbase = 0;
		call->send_queue = tq;
		call->tx_qtail = tq;
		call->tx_queue = tq;
	}

but you cannot eliminate the last 'else' statement there.

David
