Staging: gdm72xx: Iterate list using list_for_each_entry
Code using doubly linked list is iterated generally using list_empty and
list_entry functions, but it can be better written using list_for_each_entry
macro.
This patch replaces the while loop containing list_empty and list_entry with
list_for_each_entry and list_for_each_entry_safe. list_for_each_entry is a
macro which is used to iterate over a list of given type. So while loop used to
iterate over a list can be replaced with list_for_each_entry macro. However, if
list_del is used in the loop, then list_for_each_entry_safe is a better choice.
This transformation is done by using the following coccinelle script.
@ rule1 @
expression E1;
identifier I1, I2;
type T;
iterator name list_for_each_entry;
@@
- while (list_empty(&E1) == 0)
+ list_for_each_entry (I1, &E1, I2)
{
...when != T *I1;
- I1 = list_entry(E1.next, T, I2);
...when != list_del(...);
when != list_del_init(...);
}
