[PATCH][next] Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: Remove structually deadcode
Posted by Everest K.C. 1 month, 1 week ago
The switch case statement has a default branch. Thus, the return
statement at the end of the function can never be reached.
Fixing it by removing the return statement at the end of the
function.

This issue was reported by Coverity Scan.

Please include the output from the scan. People can't see this report
without logging in.

What happens when you build your patch with -Werror?
Do you see any build errors?

The issue is no longer visible in Coverity. Though the code is still
the same. The issue hasn't
been fixed. Should I remove the link too ?

I compiled the intel bluetooth module without error. Will mention that
in V2 patch too.

What's the use of including a link that don't show the problem?
