From: Monam Agarwal Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2014 18:32:32 +0000 (+0530) Subject: drivers/net: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) in tun.c X-Git-Tag: v3.15-rc1~113^2~70 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c956674b7c89e7992a09df309a9f226f02733421;p=pandora-kernel.git drivers/net: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) in tun.c This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. And in the case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize. So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL) Signed-off-by: Monam Agarwal Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
