drivers/net/niu.c: adjust array index

Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Convert array index from the loop bound to the loop index. A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @@ expression e1,e2,ar; @@ for(e1 = 0; e1 < e2; e1++) { } // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: David S.

[SCSI] ipr: reorder error handling code to include iounmap

Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> The out_msi_disable label should be before cleanup_nomem to additionally benefit from the call to iounmap. Subsequent gotos are adjusted to go to out_msi_disable instead of cleanup_nomem, which now follows it. This is safe because pci_disable_msi does nothing if pci_enable_msi was not called. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds …

drivers/staging/hv/blkvsc_drv.c: eliminate NULL pointer dereference

Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> In this code, blkvsc_req is allocated in the cache blkdev->request_pool, but freed in the first case to the cache blkvsc_req->dev->request_pool. blkvsc_req->dev is subsequently initialized to blkdev, making these the same at the second call to kmem_cache_free. But at the point of the first call, blkvsc_req->dev is NULL. The second call is …
