The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @@ type T; expression E; identifier i,fld; statement S; @@ - T i = E->fld; + T i; ... when != E when != i if (E == NULL) S + i = E->fld; // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Acked-by: David Brownell Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- diff --git a/drivers/spi/pxa2xx_spi.c b/drivers/spi/pxa2xx_spi.c index 6104f461a3c..d0fc4ca2f65 100644 --- a/drivers/spi/pxa2xx_spi.c +++ b/drivers/spi/pxa2xx_spi.c @@ -1561,11 +1561,12 @@ out_error_master_alloc: static int pxa2xx_spi_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) { struct driver_data *drv_data = platform_get_drvdata(pdev); - struct ssp_device *ssp = drv_data->ssp; + struct ssp_device *ssp; int status = 0; if (!drv_data) return 0; + ssp = drv_data->ssp; /* Remove the queue */ status = destroy_queue(drv_data);
