Re: [PATCH] MIPS: Octeon: Delete an error message for a failed memory allocation in octeon_irq_init_gpio()

Steven,

Take Joe Perches' patch, put a proper change log on it and test it.

Hopefully Joe will agree to a SoB and we will do that instead of the Markus Elfring thing.

Thanks,
David

Omit an extra message for a memory allocation failure in this function.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

You really should reverse the test here and
unindent the first block.

Again: Don't be mindless.
Take the time to improve the code.
