Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] hw/virtio: Remove NULL check in virtio_free_region_cache()
Date: Thu,  2 Sep 2021 18:50:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210902165039.432786-4-philmd@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210902165039.432786-1-philmd@redhat.com>

virtio_free_region_cache() is called within call_rcu(),
always with a non-NULL argument. Ensure new code keep it
that way by replacing the NULL check by an assertion.
Add a comment this function is called within call_rcu().

Worth mentioning the left-over from c611c76417f?
("virtio: add MemoryListener to cache ring translations")
