make clang-analyzer on x86_64 defconfig caught my attention with: net/sched/cls_api.c:2964:3: warning: Value stored to 'parent' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores] parent = 0; ^ net/sched/cls_api.c:2977:4: warning: Value stored to 'parent' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores] parent = q->handle; ^ Commit 32a4f5ecd738 ("net: sched: introduce chain object to uapi") introduced tc_dump_chain() and this initial implementation already contained these unneeded dead stores. Simplify the code to make clang-analyzer happy. As compilers will detect these unneeded assignments and optimize this anyway, the resulting binary is identical before and after this change. No functional change. No change in object code.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
