Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Refactor the vnt_rf_table_download function

This patch series refactors the vnt_rf_table_download function through
tree patches.

The first one removes the local variable "array" and all the memcpy
function calls because this copy operation from different arrays to this
variable is unnecessary.

The second patch replaces the "goto" statements with a direct "return ret"
as the jump label only returns the ret variable.

The third patch replaces three while loops with three calls to the
vnt_control_out_blocks function. This way avoid repeat a functionality
that already exists.

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] staging: vt6656: Remove the local variable "array"

Remove the local variable "array" and all the memcpy function calls
because this copy operation from different arrays to this variable is
unnecessary.

The same result can be achieved using the arrays directly.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] staging: vt6656: Use return instead of goto

Replace the "goto" statements with a direct "return ret" as the jump
label only returns the ret variable.

Also, remove the unnecessary variable initialization because the ret
variable is set a few lines later.

You might write here that vnt_control_out already does
a kmemdup copy of its const char *buffer argument and
this was made unnecessary by:

commit 12ecd24ef93277e4e5feaf27b0b18f2d3828bc5e
Author: Malcolm Priestley <[email protected]>
Date: Sat Apr 22 11:14:57 2017 +0100

staging: vt6656: use off stack for out buffer USB transfers.

Since 4.9 mandated USB buffers be heap allocated this causes the driver
to fail.

Since there is a wide range of buffer sizes use kmemdup to create
allocated buffer.

Great. I will add all this information to clarify the commit changelog.
