Hello Javier,

Thanks for the quick respin. But have you already had a look at the
diagnostics reported by smatch? Smatch reports e.g.

drivers/lightnvm/pblk-rb.c:783: pblk_rb_tear_down_check() error: we previously assumed 'rb->entries' could be null (see line 779)

on the following code:

	if (rb->entries)
		goto out;

	for (i = 0; i < rb->nr_entries; i++) {
		entry = &rb->entries[i];

		if (entry->data)
			goto out;
	}

Is that "if (rb->entries)" check correct or should that perhaps been
"if (!rb->entries)"? Smatch is available at http://repo.or.cz/w/smatch.git.

Bart.
