[PATCH] ASoC: fsl_spdif: Fix unnecessary check in fsl_spdif_probe()
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/60fff1b44203c5d9cd93602d3d5dcdda.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
The function fsl_spdif_probe() is only called with an openfirmware platform device. Therefore there is no need to check that the passed in device is NULL.

Why is this an issue - the check will make things more robust if someone manages to load the driver on a non-DT system and otherwise costs us a couple of instructions?

Thanks for your reply.
In this function, function fsl_spdif_probe() can be triggered only if the platform_device and platform_driver matches,
so I think the judgement at the beginning is redundant.
Thanks

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark
