From 7bbcf7e13695c70f13b2cae59392016c0fa2e7a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lars-Peter Clausen Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2014 14:19:00 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] iio: Avoid unnecessary kasprintf name_format already contains the final name and no format characters. So the code basically reads: dev_attr->attr.name = kstrdup(GFP_KERNEL, name_format); if (dev_attr->attr.name == NULL) ... kfree(name_format); Which means we can save one alloc and free pair per attribute name if we directly assign name_format to dev_attr->attr.name. The patch also renames name_format to name to denote that this is indeed the final name and has no format characters in it.
