USB: isp1760: Use an IS_ERR test rather than a NULL test
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In case of error, the function isp1760_register returns an ERR
pointer, but never returns a NULL pointer. So after a call to this
function, a NULL test should be replaced by an IS_ERR test. Moreover,
we have noticed that:
(1) the result of isp1760_register is assigned through the function
pci_set_drvdata without an error test,
(2) if the call to isp1760_register fails, the current function
(isp1761_pci_probe) returns 0, and if it succeeds, it returns -ENOMEM,
which seems odd.

Thus, we suggest to move the test before the call to pci_set_drvdata
to correct (1), and to turn it into a non IS_ERR test to correct (2).

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: 
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@bad_null_test@
expression x,E;
statement S1, S2;
@@
x =  isp1760_register(...)
... when != x = E
* if (x == NULL)
S1 else S2
// </smpl>
