[PATCH] powerpc/sstep: Return directly after a failed address_ok() in emulate_step()

Show all headers | View raw

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2017 15:30:15 +0100

* Return directly after a call of the function "address_ok" failed
  in a case block.

  This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Delete two error code assignments which became unnecessary with
  this refactoring.
