[PATCH 3/10] drivers/hid: Move dereferences below a NULL test

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Sun Jul 19 2009 - 11:26:34 EST


From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx>

If the NULL test is necessary, then the dereferences should be moved below
the NULL test.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@@
type T;
expression E,E1;
identifier i,fld;
statement S;
@@

- T i = E->fld;
+ T i;
... when != E=E1
when != i
if (E == NULL||...) S
+ i = E->fld;
// </smpl>
