From de23abd15175fb170270d485f267caebe86fb0b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2017 16:23:19 -0700 Subject: fs/sync.c: remove unnecessary NULL f_mapping check in sync_file_range fsync codepath assumes that f_mapping can never be NULL, but sync_file_range has a check for that. Remove the one from sync_file_range as I don't see how you'd ever get a NULL pointer in here.
