drivers/rtc: correct error-handling code
This code is not executed before ds1307->rtc has been successfully initialized to the result of calling rtc_device_register. Thus the test that ds1307->rtc is not NULL is always true. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; statement S1, S2; @@ x = rtc_device_register(...) ... when != x = E ( * if (x == NULL || ...) S1 else S2 | * if (x == NULL && ...) S1 else S2 ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Wolfram Sang <w.sang@pengutronix.de> Cc: David Brownell <david-b@pacbell.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
