[PATCH 3/5] drivers/infiniband: test for IS_ERR rather than 0

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Mon Mar 24 2008 - 14:10:25 EST


From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx>

The function rdma_create_id always returns either a valid pointer or a
value made with ERR_PTR, so its result should be tested with IS_ERR, not
with a test for 0.


The problem was found using the following semantic match.
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

E = NULL
... when != E = E1

@depends on !n@

* if@p (E)
S else S1
