From: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.8 commit 286918928ed7094d53e6fd08513e4a3f1a09f1d0 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8ST59 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 31f5b956a197d4ec25c8a07cb3a2ab69d0c0b82f ] 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.
