[PATCH V2][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.
Fix it by removing the return statement at the end of the
function.
The intel bluetooth module was successfully built after the change
without any errors.

This issue was reported by Coverity Scan.

Delete this sentence.  It should just be assumed that changes don't break the
build.  You can put that code isn't tested under the --- cut off line, if you
want to put a warning message.  But we don't need this in the permanent git log.

Restating what I said in your other coverity patch, include
the coverity warning. This link requires login and no use
for people who don't have coverity account.

In the future don't include link that require login in the
commit logs.

Should I remove the line that says the module was successfully built
after the change,
as Dan suggested ?

The coverity scan dashboard no longer has the issue. So,I don't have
access to the coverity
warning.

Remove this from the log in that case.
