[PATCH 60/61] Input alps: Drop unlikely() around IS_ERR_OR_NULL()

From: Philipp Hahn <hidden>
Date: 2026-03-10 11:55:53
Also in: amd-gfx, bpf, ceph-devel, dm-devel, dri-devel, gfs2, intel-wired-lan, kvm, linux-block, linux-bluetooth, linux-btrfs, linux-cifs, linux-clk, linux-ext4, linux-fsdevel, linux-gpio, linux-hyperv, linux-input, linux-iommu, linux-leds, linux-media, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-modules, linux-nfs, linux-omap, linux-phy, linux-pm, linux-rockchip, linux-s390, linux-scsi, linux-sctp, linux-security-module, linux-sh, linux-sound, linux-trace-kernel, linux-usb, linux-wireless, lkml, ntfs3, sched-ext, target-devel, v9fs
Subsystem: alps ps/2 touchpad driver, input (keyboard, mouse, joystick, touchscreen) drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Dmitry Torokhov, Linus Torvalds

IS_ERR_OR_NULL() already uses likely(!ptr) internally. checkpatch does
not like nesting it:
WARNING: nested (un)?likely() calls, IS_ERR_OR_NULL already uses
unlikely() internally
Remove the explicit use of unlikely().

Change generated with coccinelle.
