From d4332013919aa87dbdede67d677e4cf2cd32e898 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean Delvare Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2014 12:57:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] driver core: dev_get_drvdata: Don't check for NULL dev There is no point in calling dev_get_drvdata without a valid device. So checking for dev == NULL is pointless. If such a check is ever needed - which I doubt - the driver should do it before calling dev_get_drvdata. We were returning NULL if dev was NULL, which the caller certainly did not expect anyway, so that was only delaying the crash if the caller is not paying attention.
