The recent rename of event_hist_trigger_parse() caused smatch re-evaluation of trace_events_hist.c and as a result an old warning was found: kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:6174 event_hist_trigger_parse() error: we previously assumed 'glob' could be null (see line 6166) glob should never be null (and apparently smatch can also figure that out and skip the warning when using the cross-function DB (but which can't be used with a 0day build as it takes too much time to generate)). Nonetheless for clarity, remove the test but add a WARN_ON() in case the code ever changes.

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.
