iwlwifi: iwlagn_request_scan: Fix check for priv->scan_request
The WARN_ON_ONCE() check for scan_request will not correctly detect a NULL pointer for scan_type == IWL_SCAN_NORMAL. Make it explicit that the check only applies to normal scans. Convert WARN_ON_ONCE to WARN_ON since priv->scan_request really _can't_ be NULL for normal scans. If it is then we should emit frequent warnings. This smatch warning led to scrutiny of iwlagn_request_scan(): drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/dvm/scan.c:894 iwlagn_request_scan() error: we previously assumed 'priv->scan_request' could be null (see line 792) Signed-off-by: Tim Gardner <tim.gardner@canonical.com> Reviewed-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
