X-Git-Tag: v6.6.17~7890^2~28
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=798a5b6c195d1c64fd5e9dd252381feb17e5ff22;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git

tracing: Fix smatch warning for null glob in event_hist_trigger_parse()

The recent rename of event_hist_trigger_parse() caused smatch
re-evaluation of trace_events_hist.c and as a result an old warning
was found:

    kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:6174 event_hist_trigger_parse()
    error: we previously assumed 'glob' could be null (see line 6166)

glob should never be null (and apparently smatch can also figure that
out and skip the warning when using the cross-function DB (but which
can't be used with a 0day build as it takes too much time to
generate)).

Nonetheless for clarity, remove the test but add a WARN_ON() in case
the code ever changes.
