list_for_each_entry is able to handle an empty list. The only effect of avoiding the loop is not initializing the index variable. Drop list_empty tests in cases where these variables are not used. Note that list_for_each_entry is defined in terms of list_first_entry, which indicates that it should not be used on an empty list. But in list_for_each_entry, the element obtained by list_first_entry is not really accessed, only the address of its list_head field is compared to the address of the list head, so the list_first_entry is safe. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) <smpl> @@ expression x,e; iterator name list_for_each_entry; statement S; identifier i; @@ -if (!(list_empty(x))) { list_for_each_entry(i,x,...)
