The analysis turned up 38 mostly minor issues which are enumerated here with patches. We went through and resolved these issues but would love to see these mostly minor changes reviewed and commited upstream. Thanks, Brian Behlendorf , and Herb Wartens ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coverity ID: 4: Deadcode This check is unnecessary since fs_type is guaranteed to be set earlier in the function.
