Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drivers/media/video/videobuf-dma-sg.c: avoid to clear memory twice
Date: Mon, 09 Jun 2008 00:08:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <g2hl81$btp$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
From: Christophe Jaillet <jaillet.christophe@wanadoo.fr>
Hi, here is a patch against linux/drivers/usb/atm/cxacru.c which :
1) Remove a useless initialisation of 'i'
2) Avoid to clear the memory allocated twice (once in 'kcalloc', once in
'sg_init_table')
3) Remove a test that can never trigger. The function returns NULL in
such a case, so we know that at this point 'pages[0]' != NULL
