Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/core: Remove NULL check before dev_{put, hold}
Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2024 14:34:56 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Zi5QgLIt9sblrfYs@octinomon.home> (raw)

Coccinelle reports a warning

WARNING: NULL check before dev_{put, hold} functions is not needed

The reason is the call netdev_{put, hold} of dev_{put,hold} will check NULL
There is no need to check before using dev_{put, hold}
