[PATCH net-next v2 0/4] net: remove conditional returns with no effect

From: Sang-Heon Jeon

Date: Sat Jul 25 2026 - 11:11:43 EST


Hello,

This series removes conditional returns where both branches return
the same value, so the check has no effect. As suggested by Jakub, the
netdev patches of the treewide v1 series [1] are posted separately.

All patches are generated by the Coccinelle script, which you can
find in v1.

The patch grouping is unchanged from v1. If you would rather split,
merge or drop any of the patches, just let me know and I will address
it in the next version.
