drivers/staging/lustre: Nuke an unsigned >= 0 assert
Writing asserts for almost-never-can-happen things can be valuable. Writing an assert that tests that an "unsigned int" hasn't gone negative isn't. And it generates an *ugly* message: drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:20: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true [-Wtype-limits] LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved); ^ include/linux/compiler.h:137:45: note: in definition of macro 'unlikely' # define unlikely(x) (__builtin_constant_p(x) ? !!(x) : __branch_check__(x, 0)) ^ drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:2: note: in expansion of macro 'LASSERTF' LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved); ^ drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:20: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true [-Wtype-limits] LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved); ^ include/linux/compiler.h:137:53: note: in definition of macro 'unlikely' # define unlikely(x) (__builtin_constant_p(x) ? !!(x) : __branch_check__(x, 0)) ^ drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:2: note: in expansion of macro 'LASSERTF' LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved); ^ drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:20: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true [-Wtype-limits] LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved); ^ include/linux/compiler.h:110:47: note: in definition of macro 'likely_notrace' #define likely_notrace(x) __builtin_expect(!!(x), 1) ^ include/linux/compiler.h:137:58: note: in expansion of macro '__branch_check__' # define unlikely(x) (__builtin_constant_p(x) ? !!(x) : __branch_check__(x, 0)) ^ drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/../include/linux/../../../include/linux/libcfs/libcfs_private.h:58:6: note: in expansion of macro 'unlikely' if (unlikely(!(cond))) { \ ^ drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/rw.c:763:2: note: in expansion of macro 'LASSERTF' LASSERTF(reserved >= 0, "reserved %lu\n", reserved); ^ Umm, thank you, GCC. We'll delete the problem line so we never see that spew again. Signed-off-by: Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
