drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: adjust error handling code
Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> In this code, it is possible to tell statically whether usblp will be NULL in the error handling code. Oliver Neukum suggested to make a goto to the final return rather than return directly. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @@ identifier f,err,l,l1; type T; …

[S390] drivers/s390: Eliminate NULL test and memset after alloc_bootmem
Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2b9e04d278316b2faddf276015fc06e3b, alloc_bootmem and related functions never return NULL and always return a zeroed region of memory. Thus a NULL test or memset after calls to these functions is unnecessary. drivers/s390/char/raw3270.c | 11 +———- drivers/s390/char/sclp_con.c | 2 — 2 files changed, 1 insertion(+), 12 deletions(-) …

ext4: Use BUG_ON() instead of BUG()
Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> if (…) BUG(); should be replaced with BUG_ON(…) when the test has no side-effects to allow a definition of BUG_ON that drops the code completely.
