My compiler warns that if we take this code path, then you will
of_node_put(<uninitialized panel>) below.

My brain read this function as:
check something
if (error)
  bailout!

check something
if (error)
  bailout!

ret should be edp

I then have to scan the code again to figure out what ret is otherwise,
and convince myself that the error path is never an error, but a totally
normal case.


If you instead rely on the fact that both of_get_child_by_name() and
of_node_put() can be passed NULL, you can write this as:

static int fn(..) {
  aux_bus = of_get_child_by_name(dev->of_node, "aux-bus");
  panel = of_get_child_by_name(aux_bus, "panel");

  if (panel)
    connector_type = DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_eDP;
  else
    connector_type = DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_DisplayPort;

  of_node_put(panel);
  of_node_put(aux_bus);

  return connector_type;
}

Much easier to read, and you don't even have to zero-initialize panel to
avoid that compiler warning.
