Date: Sat, 7 May 2022 08:46:04 +0200 From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@...roup.eu> To: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@...nel.crashing.org>, Paul Mackerras <paulus@...ba.org>, Michael Ellerman <mpe@...erman.id.au>, naveen.n.rao@...ux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@...roup.eu>, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linuxppc-dev@...ts.ozlabs.org Subject: [PATCH v2 02/25] powerpc/ftrace: Remove redundant create_branch() calls Since commit d5937db114e4 ("powerpc/code-patching: Fix patch_branch() return on out-of-range failure") patch_branch() fails with -ERANGE when trying to branch out of range. No need to perform the test twice. Remove redundant create_branch() calls.
