Subject: [PATCH -next] staging: bcm2708_vchiq: fix return value check in vchiq_init_state()
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2016 15:05:36 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1476716736-7114-1-git-send-email-weiyj.lk@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@huawei.com>
In case of error, the function kthread_create() returns ERR_PTR() and
never returns NULL. The NULL test in the return value check should be
replaced with IS_ERR().
