From d1edc085559744fbda7a55e97eeae8bd6135a11b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Thu, 4 Apr 2019 15:46:03 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: remove redundant check on tskb The non-null check on tskb is always false because it is in an else path of a check on tskb and hence tskb is null in this code block. This is check is therefore redundant and can be removed as well as the label coalesc. if (tsbk) { ... } else { ... if (unlikely(!skb)) { if (tskb) /* can never be true, redundant code */ goto coalesc; return; } } Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King Reviewed-by: Mukesh Ojha Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
