From 0ae6ee006cec19d9f53f3d042de173f4b70649df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2017 17:20:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fbdev: da8xx-fb: Drop unnecessary static Drop static on a local variable, when the variable is initialized before any possible use. Thus, the static has no benefit. The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @bad exists@ position p; identifier x; type T; @@ static T x@p; ... x = <+...x...+> @@ identifier x; expression e; type T; position p != bad.p; @@ -static T x@p; ... when != x when strict ?x = e; // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Cc: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz --- drivers/video/fbdev/da8xx-fb.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/video/fbdev/da8xx-fb.c b/drivers/video/fbdev/da8xx-fb.c index c229b1a0d13b..a74096c53cb5 100644 --- a/drivers/video/fbdev/da8xx-fb.c +++ b/drivers/video/fbdev/da8xx-fb.c @@ -1341,7 +1341,7 @@ static int fb_probe(struct platform_device *device) { struct da8xx_lcdc_platform_data *fb_pdata = dev_get_platdata(&device->dev); - static struct resource *lcdc_regs; + struct resource *lcdc_regs; struct lcd_ctrl_config *lcd_cfg; struct fb_videomode *lcdc_info; struct fb_info *da8xx_fb_info;
