Subject: [PATCH v2] hugetlbfs: Remove useless BUG_ON(!inode) in hugetlbfs_setattr()
Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2021 06:07:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210118110700.52506-1-linmiaohe@huawei.com> (raw)

When we reach here with inode = NULL, we should have crashed as inode has
already been dereferenced via hstate_inode. So this BUG_ON(!inode) does not
take effect and should be removed.
