From 71d8dc030a8ebf8401d96872d0ed2d151a4cdbba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anjaliintel-21 Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2023 07:01:53 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] sched/rt: pick_next_rt_entity(): check list_entry Commit 326587b84078 ("sched: fix goto retry in pick_next_task_rt()") removed any path which could make pick_next_rt_entity() return NULL. However, BUG_ON(!rt_se) in _pick_next_task_rt() (the only caller of pick_next_rt_entity()) still checks the error condition, which can never happen, since list_entry() never returns NULL. Remove the BUG_ON check, and instead emit a warning in the only possible error condition here: the queue being empty which should never happen.
