Author: Himangi Saraogi <himangi774@gmail.com> This patch removes the null test on ctrl. ctrl is initialized at the beginning of the function to &session->ctrl. Since session is dereferenced prior to the null test, session must be a valid pointer, and &session->ctrl cannot be null. The following Coccinelle script is used for detecting the change: @r@ expression …

drm/i915: Make use of intel_fb_obj() (v2)
Author: Matt Roper <matthew.d.roper@intel.com> This should hopefully simplify the display code slightly and also solves at least one mistake in intel_pipe_set_base() where to_intel_framebuffer(fb)->obj is referenced during local variable initialization, before ‘if (!fb)’ gets checked. Potential uses of this macro were identified via the following Coccinelle patch: @@ expression E; @@ * to_intel_framebuffer(E)->obj @@ expression E; …

Author: Himangi Saraogi <himangi774@gmail.com> nhi->rx_rings does not have type as struct tb_ring *, as it is a double pointer so the elements of the array should have pointer type, not structure type.

For now, suffice it to say that the current backing object is only ever used with the render ring, so we’re making this fact more explicit …
