[PATCH v2 2/2] nvdimm: Remove dead code for ENODEV checking in scan_labels()
From: Li Zhijian
Date: Thu Jul 18 2024 - 22:00:09 EST
The only way create_namespace_pmem() returns an ENODEV code is if
select_pmem_id(nd_region, &uuid) returns ENODEV when its 2nd parameter
is a null pointer. However, this is impossible because &uuid is always
valid.
Furthermore, create_namespace_pmem() is the only user of
select_pmem_id(), it's safe to remove the 'return -ENODEV' branch.
