From 5a26c8f0cf1e95106858bb4e23ca6dd14c9b842f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2012 09:31:45 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Remove an unneeded check in trace_seq_buffer() memcpy() returns a pointer to "bug". Hopefully, it's not NULL here or we would already have Oopsed.
