Subject:  &&//|| typo ?

Hi,

inspired by the mail http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/15/159
I did

grep -Ern '\!=.*\|\|.*\!=' linux-2.6.28.5

and found the following tests which are always true if the tested variable is
not NaN:

linux-2.6.28.5/sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0_core.c:2792:	if ((bits != 8) || (bits != 16))

linux-2.6.28.5/sound/oss/ad1848.c:283:		if ( (devc->model != MD_1845) ||
(devc->model != MD_1845_SSCAPE))
linux-2.6.28.5/sound/oss/ad1848.c:2110:			if (devc->model != MD_1845 ||
devc->model != MD_1845_SSCAPE)

linux-2.6.28.5/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:1794:	if ((ss.type != 3) || (ss.type != 7))
linux-2.6.28.5/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:1837:	if ((tr.type != 3) || (tr.type != 11))
/* TODO: Check if guest is in IA32e mode */

linux-2.6.28.5/net/sunrpc/auth_unix.c:122:	if (cred->uc_uid != acred->uid ||
cred->uc_gid != acred->gid)

htonl(RPC_AUTH_NULL) || svc_getu32(argv) != 0) {

plain[7]))

linux-2.6.28.5/drivers/block/paride/pf.c:569:		if ((buf[k + offs] != 0x20) ||
(buf[k + offs] != l))

already known:

linux-2.6.28.5/drivers/block/paride/pt.c:506:		if ((buf[k + offs] != 0x20) ||
(buf[k + offs] != l))

linux-2.6.28.5/drivers/misc/sgi-gru/grukservices.c:612:	if (word0 != word1 ||
word0 != MAGIC) {

linux-2.6.28.5/drivers/scsi/gvp11.c:283:	if (qq != q || qq != 0xff)	/* should be
read only, all 1's */

linux-2.6.28.5/drivers/scsi/FlashPoint.c:6045:				if(bit_cnt != 0 || bit_cnt != 8)
