Subject: [PATCH] drm/gma500/oaktrail_lvds: replace continue with break

From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>

Currently a loop scans through the connector list checking
for connectors that do not match a specific criteria. The
use of the continue statement is a little unintuitive and
can confuse static analysis checking. Invert the criteria
matching logic and use a break to terminate the loop once
the first suitable connector has been found.

Thanks to Patrik Jakobsson for explaining the original
intent of the code and suggesting this change.

Applied to drm-misc-next

Thanks for the patch!

This test is wrong/impossible. It should be:

if (list_entry_is_head(connector, &mode_config->connector_list,
head)) {

Right, we should be back at the head if no match was found. Actually,
when looking closer, we should use drm_for_each_connector_iter() when
walking the connector list together with proper locking.
