linux-2.5.30/fs/partitions/ldm.c had 23 statements
of the form BUG_ON(condition1 || condition2). This patch changes
them to:
BUG_ON(condition1);
BUG_ON(condition2);
This way you may get more useful information if somebody
trips one of them. I recently tripped such a statement with a
sporadic bug and was pretty frustrated by the reduced opportunity
to track it down, so I've decided to submit patches to fix all
such instances in the kernel. Grepping for 'BUG_ON.*\|\|' reveals
only four kernel components with such statements:
drivers/usb/storage/transport.c, ach/arm/mach-iop310/iq80310-pci.c,
fs/ntfs/, and fs/partitions/ldm.c. This is the final patch in the
series, which should eliminate all such BUG_ON(cond1 || cond2) statements.
I would like to get this patch into Linus's 2.5 tree.
Could you please let me know if you want to handle submitting it
to Linus, if you want me to do so, if you want to follow some other
course of action? Thanks in advance.
