[media] ttpci: Replace memset with eth_zero_addr
Author: Vaishali Thakkar <vthakkar1994@gmail.com> Use eth_zero_addr to assign the zero address to the given address array instead of memset when second argument is address of zero. Note that the 6 in the third argument of memset appears to represent an ethernet address size (ETH_ALEN). The Coccinelle semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: …

perf header: Delete an unnecessary check before the calling free_event_desc()
Author: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net> The free_event_desc() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

IB/srpt: Convert use of __constant_cpu_to_beXX to cpu_to_beXX
Author: Vaishali Thakkar <vthakkar1994@gmail.com> In little endian cases, the macro cpu_to_be{16,32,64} unfolds to __swab{16,32,64} which provides special case for constants. In big endian cases, __constant_cpu_to_be{16,32,64} and cpu_to_be{16,32,64} expand directly to the same expression. So, replace __constant_cpu_to_be{16,32,64} with cpu_to_be{16,32,64} with the goal of getting rid of the definitions of __constant_cpu_to_be{16,32,64} completely. The Coccinelle semantic patch that …
