We could get rid of if (dir1) but I should note that I did not post this patch for review, this is an untested patch that I pushed to a branch on my private github. It is very generous of kbuild testbot to test any branch I push to my private github, but as much as I can recall, I never asked for it... Thanks, Amir.
