[RFC 2/5] ia64/sn/hwperf: use seq_open_data

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Thu Mar 01 2018 - 18:37:43 EST


This code should check the return value of seq_open(); if it failed,
file->private_data is NULL. But we can avoid the issue entirely and
simplify the code by letting seq_open_data() set the ->private member
to objbuf.
