From 9a53bf54b8149bc1372f50a83b769f42772083ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Larry Finger Date: Sat, 27 Aug 2011 15:53:42 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] b43: Fix swatch warning Swatch reports the following warning for main.c: CHECK drivers/net/wireless/b43/main.c drivers/net/wireless/b43/main.c +4115 b43_wireless_core_stop(7) warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dev' After analysis, this is not a bug, but a false warning. Nonetheless, a cleanup is in order to prevent some future janitor proposing the wrong fix, as I did in my original patch. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Signed-off-by: John W.
