[PATCH v2] staging: rtl8723bs: fix comparison to false
Posted by Akhil Boyapati 2 months ago
Replace '== false' with '!' operator for boolean test
to adhere to Linux kernel coding style.

Reported by checkpatch:
CHECK: Using comparison to false is error prone

Hi Akhil,
I am sorry to inform you, but upon checking, I have discovered that 
your change was introduced in one patch in the past. You have probably
been working on master branch(one from Linus) and not staging-next. 
Therefore, since patch wasn't merged to mainline yet, you didn't see 
that your change is already present.
Best regards,
Luka Gejak

Hello Luka,
Thanks for letting me know, I really appreciate it. I just switched to
