Re: [PATCH][net-next] net: bridge: remove redundant check to see if err is set

[Colin Ian King]

..and one more thing, in net/bridge/br_netlink_tunnel.c,
__get_num_vlan_tunnel_infos, are the args to vlan_tunnel_id_isrange()
the wrong way around? I'm not 100% sure, but I'd thought I'd flag it up.


        if (v_start) {
                if ((v_end->vid - v->vid) > 0 &&
                    vlan_tunnel_id_isrange(v_end, v) > 0)
                        num_tinfos += 2;
                else
                        num_tinfos += 1;
        }
