Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] s390/net: Deletion of unnecessary checks before two
 function calls

This one is buggy.

I'm sorry, but please stop sending these.

For kfree(), at least we all know that kfree() accepts NULL pointer.
But for this one:
1) I don't know what the functions do so I have to look at the code.
2) It's in a arch that I don't compile so cscope isn't set up meaning
   it's hard to find the functions.

You're sending a lot of patches and they are all hard to review and some
of them are buggy and none of them really add any value.  It's a waste
of your time and it's a waste of my time.

regards,
dan carpenter
