Hello Benjamin Gaignard,

The patch f32c4c506f9b: "drm: sti: add DVO output connector" from Dec
30, 2014, leads to the following static checker warning:

	drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_awg_utils.c:63 awg_generate_instr()
	warn: no-op. '(arg << 24) >> 24'

drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_awg_utils.c
    46                  switch (opcode) {
    47                  case SKIP:
    48                          /* leave 'arg' + 1 pixel elapsing without changing
    49                           * output bus */
    50                          arg--; /* pixel adjustment */
    51                          arg_tmp--;
    52  
    53                          if (arg < 0) {
    54                                  /* SKIP instruction not needed */
    55                                  return 0;
    56                          }
    57  
    58                          if (arg == 0) {
    59                                  /* SKIP 0 not permitted but we want to skip 1
    60                                   * pixel. So we transform SKIP into SET
    61                                   * instruction */
    62                                  opcode = SET;
    63                                  arg = (arg << 24) >> 24;
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    64                                  arg &= (0x0ff);
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Since "arg" is zero then the shift/mask operations are a no-op.  I'm not
sure what was intented.

    65                                  break;
    66                          }
    67  
    68                          mux = 0;
    69                          data_enable = 0;
    70                          arg = (arg << 22) >> 22;
    71                          arg &= (0x3ff);
    72                          break;
    73                  case REPEAT:
