The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit 8e7c15d6b5468f0dcdd887db1e5df88e629c00d6 Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Mon Aug 20 10:26:47 2012 +0200
batman-adv: Remove extra check in batadv_bit_get_packet
batadv_bit_get_packet checks for all common situations before it decides that the new received packet indicates that the host was restarted. This extra condition check at the end of the function is not necessary because this condition is always true.
This patch addresses Coverity #712296: Logically dead code
