[PATCH] nfp: bpf: improve handling for disabled BPF syscall

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Date: 2016-09-23 20:24:55

I stumbled over a new warning during randconfig testing,
with CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL disabled:

drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfp_net_offload.c: In function 'nfp_net_bpf_offload':
drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfp_net_offload.c:263:3: error: '*((void *)&res+4)' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfp_net_offload.c:263:3: error: 'res.n_instr' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

As far as I can tell, this is a false positive caused by the compiler
getting confused about a function that is partially inlined, but it's
easy to avoid while improving the code:

The nfp_bpf_jit() stub helper for that configuration is unusual as it
is defined in a header file but not marked 'static inline'. By moving
the compile-time check into the caller using the IS_ENABLED() macro,
we can remove that stub and simplify the nfp_net_bpf_offload_prepare()
function enough to unconfuse the compiler.

Thanks Arnd!  static inline definitely missing there but if we can
depend on dead code elimination to remove the symbol that's even cooler!
