Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: fix g_malloc check
Date: Wed,  4 May 2022 22:31:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220504203129.672944-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

Use the string equality operator "eq", and ensure that $1 is defined by
using "(try|)" instead of "(try)?".  The alternative "((?:try)?)" is
longer and less readable.
