I know this change is supposed to be non-functional, but I did notice a
pattern here.
This function:
rpc = r535_gsp_msgq_wait(gsp, sizeof(*rpc), &size, &time);
if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(rpc))
return rpc;
Function r535_gsp_rpc_poll, which calls this function:
repv = r535_gsp_msg_recv(gsp, fn, 0);
mutex_unlock(&gsp->cmdq.mutex);
if (IS_ERR(repv))
return PTR_ERR(repv);
So if rpc is NULL, r535_gsp_msg_recv() will return NULL, but r535_gsp_rpc_poll
expects an error code instead. Since it technically doesn't get one, it
returns 0 (success).
To be fair, it does not appear that r535_gsp_msgq_wait() can return NULL, but
that is obscured by the code.
