KVM: correct error-handling code
Author: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> This code is not executed before file has been initialized to the result of calling eventfd_fget. This function returns an ERR_PTR value in an error case instead of NULL. Thus the test that file is not NULL is always true. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem …
