Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] drm/i915: remove unnecessary null test
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2015 17:36:45 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1437480406-19285-1-git-send-email-sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> (raw)

While creating the debugfs file we are setting the inode->i_private to
dev. That same dev is passed to these functions as private of struct
seq_file via single_open(). Moreover single_open is setting
file->private_data->private to dev.
So at this point it can never be NULL.
This check was added by commit eb3394faeb97 ("drm/i915: Add debugfs test
control files for Displayport compliance testing")

Signed-off-by: Sudip Mukherjee <sudip@vectorindia.org>

v3: removed the check in i915_displayport_test_active_write also
v2: removed null check
v1 was drm/i915: fix possible null pointer dereference
