the following patch was just integrated into master: commit 3051cd9265b8eb29742a66fc67db083289fa07e5 Author: Martin Roth martinroth@google.com Date: Wed Jan 11 10:57:09 2017 -0700
soc/marvell/mvmap2315: Mark mvmap2315_reset() as noreturn
mvmap2315_reset() is called from locations where we're checking for NULL pointers. Because coverity can't tell from the code that the functions are not returning, it's showing errors of accessing pointers after we've determined that they're invalid.
Mark it as noreturn, and add a loop in case the reset isn't on the next instruction. This probably isn't needed, but shouldn't hurt.
