From c956674b7c89e7992a09df309a9f226f02733421 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Monam Agarwal Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2014 00:02:32 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] 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-format-patch failed
