Subject: WTF: patch "[PATCH] LoongArch: KVM: Remove unused returns and semicolons" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 6.16-stable tree?
Date: Sun, 21 Sep 2025 14:24:17 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2025092117-veto-napping-489f@gregkh> (raw)

The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 6.16-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to 
<stable@vger.kernel.org> and let me know why this patch should be
applied.  Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be
seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h

Subject: [PATCH] LoongArch: KVM: Remove unused returns and semicolons

The default branch has already handled all undefined cases, so the final
return statement is redundant. Redundant semicolons are removed, too.
