Use of_property_read_bool to check for the existence of a property.
This caught my eye since Rob told me off for doing the same recently[1].

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression e1,e2; statement S2,S1; @@ - if (of_get_property(e1,e2,NULL)) + if (of_property_read_bool(e1,e2)) S1 else S2 // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <redacted> --- drivers/soc/ti/knav_qmss_queue.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)diff --git a/drivers/soc/ti/knav_qmss_queue.c b/drivers/soc/ti/knav_qmss_queue.c index b73e353..56b5d7c 100644 --- a/drivers/soc/ti/knav_qmss_queue.c +++ b/drivers/soc/ti/knav_qmss_queue.c@@ -1240,7 +1240,7 @@ static int knav_setup_queue_range(struct knav_device *kdev, if (of_get_property(node, "qalloc-by-id", NULL))
According to the binding, "qalloc-by-id" _is_ a boolean property, so this one really does deserve to be of_property_read_bool()...
range->flags |= RANGE_RESERVED;
- if (of_get_property(node, "accumulator", NULL)) {
+ if (of_property_read_bool(node, "accumulator")) {...whereas "accumulator" must have a value, so this isn't technically appropriate. In general, most of these "if the property exists, read the property and do stuff" checks are probably a sign of code that could be simplified by refactoring the "do stuff" step to just specifically handle the "read the property" step returning -EINVAL when it's not present.

ret = knav_init_acc_range(kdev, node, range);
if (ret < 0) {
