bcache: fix incorrect data type usage in btree_flush_write()
Dan Carpenter points out that from commit 2aa8c529387c ("bcache: avoid unnecessary btree nodes flushing in btree_flush_write()"), there is a incorrect data type usage which leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/md/bcache/journal.c:444 btree_flush_write() warn: 'ref_nr' unsigned <= 0 drivers/md/bcache/journal.c 422 static void btree_flush_write(struct cache_set *c) 423 { 424 struct btree *b, *t, *btree_nodes[BTREE_FLUSH_NR]; 425 unsigned int i, nr, ref_nr; ^^^^^^ 426 atomic_t *fifo_front_p, *now_fifo_front_p; 427 size_t mask; 428 429 if (c->journal.btree_flushing) 430 return; 431 432 spin_lock(&c->journal.flush_write_lock); 433 if (c->journal.btree_flushing) { 434 spin_unlock(&c->journal.flush_write_lock); 435 return; 436 } 437 c->journal.btree_flushing = true; 438 spin_unlock(&c->journal.flush_write_lock); 439 440 /* get the oldest journal entry and check its refcount */ 441 spin_lock(&c->journal.lock); 442 fifo_front_p = &fifo_front(&c->journal.pin); 443 ref_nr = atomic_read(fifo_front_p); 444 if (ref_nr <= 0) { ^^^^^^^^^^^ Unsigned can't be less than zero. 445 /* 446 * do nothing if no btree node references 447 * the oldest journal entry 448 */ 449 spin_unlock(&c->journal.lock); 450 goto out; 451 } 452 spin_unlock(&c->journal.lock); As the warning information indicates, local varaible ref_nr in unsigned int type is wrong, which does not matche atomic_read() and the "<= 0" checking. This patch fixes the above error by defining local variable ref_nr as int type.
