From ccdd6a93ee0c4a68cfaeddc80a87fc092ff35b96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Monam Agarwal Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2014 02:02:29 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] drivers/block: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) in drbd/drbd_state.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: Lars Ellenberg --- Reading git-format-patch failed
