[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm ebs: avoid double unlikely() notation when using IS_ERR()

Antonio Quartulli a at unstable.cc
Thu Dec 10 08:50:49 UTC 2020


The definition of IS_ERR() already applies the unlikely() notation
when checking the error status of the passed pointer. For this
reason there is no need to have the same notation outside of
IS_ERR() itself.

Clean up code by removing redundant notation.
