Subject: [char-misc-next] mei: avoid iterator usage outside of list_for_each_entry
Date: Tue, 8 Mar 2022 11:59:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220308095926.300412-1-tomas.winkler@intel.com> (raw)
From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@intel.com>
Usage of the iterator outside of the list_for_each_entry
is considered harmful. https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/2/17/1032
Do not reference the loop variable outside of the loop,
by rearranging the orders of execution.
Instead of performing search loop and checking outside the loop
if the end of the list was hit and no matching element was found,
the execution is performed inside the loop upon a successful match
followed by a goto statement to the next step,
therefore no condition has to be performed after the loop has ended.
