[PATCH 6/9] drivers/staging/go7007: Eliminate useless code

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Sat Jan 16 2010 - 10:59:33 EST


From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx>

The variable s is initialized twice to the same (side effect-free)
expression. Drop one initialization.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@forall@
idexpression *x;
identifier f!=ERR_PTR;
@@

x = f(...)
... when != x
(
x = f(...,<+...x...+>,...)
|
* x = f(...)
)
// </smpl>
