[PATCH] btrfs: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value.  The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.

Meta-comment, why is there a btrfs debugfs directory at all?  All you
have here is a single "test" file that doesn't do anything except expose
a variable that never changes.  What is this directory and single file
for?  Can I just delete the whole thing?
