Subject: [PATCH 09/10] bcache: add code comments for bch_btree_node_get() and __bch_btree_node_alloc()
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2023 13:25:02 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231120052503.6122-10-colyli@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231120052503.6122-1-colyli@suse.de>
This patch adds code comments to bch_btree_node_get() and
__bch_btree_node_alloc() that NULL pointer will not be returned and it
is unnecessary to check NULL pointer by the callers of these routines.
