Functions like devm_kzalloc, kmalloc_array, devm_ioremap, usb_alloc_urb, alloc_netdev return NULL as a return value on failure. Generally, When NULL represents failure, !x is commonly used. This patch cleans up the tests on the results of these functions, thereby using !x instead of x == NULL or NULL == x. This is done via following coccinelle script: @prob_7@ identifier x; statement S; @@ ( x = devm_kzalloc(...); | x = usb_alloc_urb(...); | x = kmalloc_array(...); | x = devm_ioremap(...); | x = alloc_netdev(...); ) ... - if(NULL == x) + if(!x) S Further we have used isomorphism characteristics of coccinelle to indicate x == NULL and NULL == x are equivalent. This is done via following iso script. Expression @ is_null @ expression X; @@ X == NULL <=> NULL == X Signed-off-by: Somya Anand <somyaanand214@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
