From 6d3e0d0c1ca926fd6ab557fcd5efb171148f43d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tomas Winkler Date: Wed, 4 Sep 2013 15:35:52 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] hpet: remove useless check if fixmem32 is NULL fixmem32 is assigned to address of res->data member so the address is always valid Actually since we are not checking for res != NULL static analyzing is complaining about referencing the pointer and consequent check for null. The code snippet looks confusing also for human eyes.
