[PATCH v2] fs/proc/vmcore: a few cleanups for vmcore_add_device_dump
Posted by Su Hui 3 months, 2 weeks ago
There are two cleanups for vmcore_add_device_dump(). Return -ENOMEM
directly rather than goto the label to simplify the code. Using
scoped_guard() to simplify the lock/unlock code.

v2:
 - Remove the wrong change of 'data_size'.
 - Move 'Return 0;' out of the scoped_guard.

v1:
